[Taxacom] Searching Taxacom archives

Simpler and more efficient than that, you can go to the Taxacom index
page http://mailman.nhm.ku.edu/pipermail/taxacom/ and do a Google search
for your keywords on the Taxacom site if you have Google toolbar
installed on your browser. 

Do this by entering the keywords in the Google search box, and click on
the strange crossed eyes and magnifying glass icon (if it is present) or
click on the drop-down arrowhead next to the google search icon and
select 'current site' (various versions of Google toolbar vary slightly,
but they should all be capable of doing a 'current site' search). 

A search using cabinets and insects returned 71 hits, while a general
Google search for Taxacom and cabinets and insects hit various other
things as well, and did not go straight to the individual Taxacom items.

Nico,
     The old taxacom archives had a nice search function built into it,
but 
I haven't been able to get into it the past few months.  Therefore, I 
started using google instead, using the keyword taxacom (followed by 
keywords that I want to find in the post).  In this case, you could do a

google search for: taxacom storage cabinets insects
    ---Hope that helps,
             Ken Kinman
