Description bmah 2000-04-26 06:30:01 UTC
It appears that some mailing list articles show up with
incorrect dates in the "Search Results" page of the mailing
list search features on www.freebsd.org.  Specifically, they seem
to take on the dates of a prior message listed in the
search results.

How-To-Repeat: 
Here's an example:  Do a mailing list search within freebsd-questions,
with a search string of "xdm AND authentication AND 4.0".  See these
results:

The archive freebsd-questions contains the following items relevant to `xdm AND authentication AND 4.0': 

    1.Robert N W Kerberized xdm, login.access 
      Score: 292; Lines: 40; 12-Apr-1997; Archive: freebsd-questions

    2."Andrew L. Re: Booting into Xwindows 
      Score: 292; Lines: 45; 12-Apr-1997; Archive: freebsd-questions

    3.Gustavo V Re: X11 
      Score: 288; Lines: 96; 12-Apr-1997; Archive: freebsd-questions

    4."Paul T. R xdm and no password 
      Score: 284; Lines: 43; 23-Jul-1996; Archive: freebsd-questions

    5.Jason <jas su problems 
      Score: 282; Lines: 44; 23-Jul-1996; Archive: freebsd-questions

Actually examining the messages in question, however, 
will show that message 2 was posted on 
"Wed, 9 Feb 2000 16:22:39 +0300 (MSK)", message 3 was posted on
"Thu, 06 Jan 2000 00:20:50 -0200", and message 5 was posted on
"Mon, 27 Sep 1999 14:04:45 -0400 (EDT)".
