As much as I hate to suggest Google, it will do what you are asking.

Just go to google and in the search bar prefix with "site:" followed by the
website, in this case the pdx mailing list, then the search criteria.
"site:http://lists.pdxlinux.org/pipermail/plug/ programming FORTRAN
<https://www.google.com/search?newwindow=1&q=site:http://lists.pdxlinux.org/pipermail/plug/+programming+FORTRAN&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjj5vvgjJPzAhX1HzQIHWz2Ac4QgwN6BAgBEAE&biw=1920&bih=921>
"
