It's randomly broken in various groups. The only solution is to run a
script that will hoover up all the posts from a given group, and
convert them into some sort of searchable format.

One problem with this is that Yahoo! Groups implements throttling so
if you overdo it you'll find you can't access the Yahoo! Groups
website for a few hours.

If a bunch of people all took about 1000 posts each over a couple of
days, we'd manage it.
