Ok, it's meta-OT, but: if I search for "adrian" or "witchy" in
the
cctalk archives, I get no hits. Nor do I get hits for anything else
I try. Unless it's personal, I'd say htdig has done on the classiccmp
server what it likes to do on mine: malfunction occasionally.
FWIW.

It's not broken, it's dysfunctional.
The way that htdig was integrated into mailman (not by me), is that is
reindexes everything in the entire archive every night. That's rather silly,
but not nearly trivial to change, due to the way it's integrated into
mailman.
I simply haven't had time to mess with anything the past week or two, work
has decided to pretty much monopolize my waking moments. It'll pass.
The search function doesn't work while htdig is rebuilding the indexes. The
index build starts every night at midnight, and doesn't finish till about
4pm or so. As a result, the search function generally only works from about
4pm till midnight, CST.
I will get around to fixing it sometime, in the not TOO terribly distant
future.

My simple fix for this is to re-index in a different directory and then
copy the files over when complete.
