If you used namazu like I do, such a search would take one second on Crusoe 933MHz wimpy laptop, and you could use google-like syntax (and, or, not, phrases and what not), and sort the search results in relevance score, date, subject, source (taken from From header line in case of emails, etc., etc.). This is most useful when searching for friends' contact info or something that are deeply embedded in my inbox and never transferred to address book. -- Ryuji Suzuki "Keep a good head and always carry a light camera." ============================================================================================================= To unsubscribe from this list, go to www.freelists.org and logon to your account (the same e-mail address and password you set-up when you subscribed,) and unsubscribe from there.
