That's true. I tried to search for a Japanese list in the archive, and
found announce-jp%40jp.freebsd.org. I copied 議論 from a BSDCon announce
there, and only managed to find it with Lucene.
For the other two I either failed to configure them properly to look
into that list or they are incapable of finding such word.

So if I cared about searching in non-English lists Lucene would be the
winner for me.

Thanks
