After using grep to search through my mail folders for some months,
I've started using Glimpse (<URL:http://glimpse.cs.arizona.edu/>).  
I think it's very neat. Even neater would be to interface it somehow
with Gnus.

A new virtual group like nnweb, only it searches through my local
mail-folders?

Even if one doesn't use Glimpse (I don't know if, some search-utility
(group-summary-search-* isn't enough) in Gnus feels essential in a
news/mail-reader -- at least to me, but I may be brain-washed by
fidonet technology...

Good? Bad? Ugly?
