Google lets you search by thread name, but the way things drift...
Or by author.

But not by any contents of the messages.

Anyone have a way to search form date to date for messages containing
an indetifying key word?

Doesn't advanced search do that?

I was using that last night but no, it doesn't allow you to search
message content.

The word matching function seems to be for subject line only.

I was hoping to find the message about the flight down to Florida.

We flew down in a '41 Taylorcraft to bring home a friends brand new '46
Aeronca Chief.


It works on content for me, but I don't see anythign that looks like
the
article you want.
