Re: search going ok

> JM, can you look  into sorting results by newest-first?

I can.  The only downside with sorting results by newest-first is that 
you lose the relevance ordering.  Right now, results are displayed 
according to the search engine's concept of "most relevant" first.

In major search engines like Google and Yahoo, this relevance ordering 
makes the most sense.  Perhaps in our specialized mailing list 
searching, freshness matters more than relevance?  In more advanced 
queries, the relevance ordering probably matters more, but maybe in the 
more common simple searches freshness matters more.
