SEARCH MESSAGES

To search messages, issue the command search scte-list<pattern> (insert the item you wish to search for in place of <pattern>). There are several options to searching;for more info, send the command help search to listserver@relay.doit.wisc.edu

For example, to find all the messages relating to SEGA, use thecommand: search scte-list sega

The command search scte-list Harmonic | Lightwaves | 1550 (the | (vertical bar) operator is "or") finds any message thatmentions "Harmonic" or "Lightwaves" or "1550".

The result of a search will be an e-mail message containing a list ofmatches - the monthly files which contain the pattern you weresearching for. Then you need to get those monthly files and search forthe individual messages with your own editor.
