Not -technically-, no. I mean, it doesn't have a boolean search a la
Google, no.
But given the different sorting/viewing options, it's really not hard to
find what you're looking for assuming you knew the relevant time period.
Now if the archives are also still downloadable from celestial via ftp
(haven't checked), then you could download the entire thing and use
something like my ediver program that will search for a regex across as
many folders as you want and compile one temporary master folder of the
matching messages, which you can then browse. It's a home-brew version of
something I found out existed later...grepmail, I think it's called.
