Re: Searching the yahoo archive

2004-05-07 by Phil

this has been a major complaint of mine.  There is a next link that 
will search the next month or so of postings.  what a crock.  search 
should be search all, not this interactive POS.  I'm sure they did it 
to lower the load on their server farm but why not just parameterize 
the search for range of files or dates with defaults that keep their 
load low?  They took the laziest way out.  I wish there was an 
alternative to Y groups.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
