Gmane went down last summer, changed hands and has not been
completely resurrected yet: the nntp portion works but the
search capability is not. See

   http://home.gmane.org/

Disappointingly, there has been no update since last September.

IME, searching list.gnu.org is an exercise in frustration. I think the
hope was that gmane search would be back shortly, but that
increasingly looks like a pipe dream.

FWIW: Although I read the mailing list through the gmane newsgroup, I
did not turn off the mailing list completely: I subscribe to the
digests which I save locally. That's what I use for searching.
