I'm not getting any replies when searching the freebsd questions 
archives at http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/

That's the page I get to if I google "freebsd questions archives" (and 
then a couple of clicks to get to the archives)
.
That page says the archives are rebuilt every 24 hours but also says 
last time it was rebuilt was Thursday, 08 Feb 2007.

Also in passing, a failed search gives me three hints:

Check the spelling of the search word(s) you used. If the spelling is 
correct and you only used one word, try using one or more similar search 
words with "Any."

If the spelling is correct and you used more than one word with "Any," 
try using one or more similar search words with "Any."

If the spelling is correct and you used more than one word with "All," 
try using one or more of the same words with "Any."

But the end of the second suggestion is the same as the end of the first 
and the third is a non-sequitor. I suspect the last word of the second 
hint should be "All".

While writing this I have discovered that going to www.freebsd.org and 
following the mailing lists link then the link to search I get to 
http://www.freebsd.org/search/search.html#mailinglists which does seem 
to work.
