The search string is easy "sendmail -group:comp.mail.sendmail". It is "almost right" except: 1) I would like to limit "time span" of searches to 1 day or 1 week [ extra as_qdr=d or as_qdr=w parameter in google URL ] It seems to require trivial change in nnweb-google-search in nnweb.el 2) How to make the virtual group *permanent*? It "vanishes" quickly from groups buffer. -- [pl>en Andrew] Andrzej Adam Filip : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : [EMAIL PROTECTED] We fight only when there is no other choice.
