>Description:

The search capability on mail-index.netbsd.org is obviously broken.
it does not return items which are obviously there.


>How-To-Repeat:
Go to http://mail-index.netbsd.org/
enter a search for 'callas' (no quotes).

Go to http://www.google.com/bsd enter the same
search.  Note hits for the string _from pages on
the mail index_ which ARE NOT returned by the mail index
search!!!  (a couple of newer documents are returned by the
mail index search, which presumably google hasn't had time
to index yet, but that's not a bug in google.  8-)

This doesn't seem to be capitalization related, as far as
I can tell.
