...and don't forget that eGroups has a vast warehouse of mailing lists.
When I am searching for a particular topic or subject in a mailing
list, this is often the first place I go to:
http://www.egroups.com/
You can find a jump point for all of these at your SeeknFind Portal
site:
http://seeknfind.ashlists.org/portal.htm
Just scroll down to the Mailing List Search forms.
Alternately, these are listed as links in the SeeknFind MoLinks page.
You can click your way to the sites:
http://seeknfind.ashlists.org/MoLinks.htm
Just go down to the section entitled "Find a Mailing List".

Okay, newsgroups. The best place to search for newsgroups is at a WWW
to USENET gateway site. The best of those is Deja:
http://www.deja.com/usenet
I have a few more WWW2USENET gateway sites listed in the MoLinks page:
http://seeknfind.ashlists.org/MoLinks.htm
Just scroll down to the section entitled, "WWW Gateways to USENET".
