I didn't know that syntax. Thanks.
Re: [flexcoders] Re: this group isn't very good
I got a message saying 'click here to request to be migrated to the new message search' (paraphrased) when looking at another Yahoo! Group, and found this in their blog (http://www.ygroupsblog.com/blog/2009/07/08/bug-update-782009/) so I think they're getting on to this, probably after they fix the RepDB problem. 2009/8/4 Vivian Richard : > Well, it is true that yahoo search is not as good as google.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: this group isn't very good
Well, it is true that yahoo search is not as good as google. That is why I am using gmail. I am using this account for last 2 years and have all the email here. As of today I have 21000+ emails :-). I just use my email search to find old emails!!!
