To aid in searching the Mono mailing lists I setup a simple search link
to Google's SiteSearch.
I've placed an html search form at:
http://www.mycgiserver.com/~gregw/pseudosearch.html
One could certainly save that document locally (or place at the bottom
of http://www.go-mono.com/mailing-lists.html !).
Since google doesn't index lists.ximian.com on a daily basis, the search
results are obviously not guaranteed to be up to date (but for me
they're still useful -- beats grepping through those txt archives).
I'm not sure if multiple form inputs with the same name is valid HTML...
but it works from mozilla. I used that as an attempt to refine the
searches to the mailing list by simply adding a q=mono-list input.
More info on Google's WebSearch / SiteSearch service is at:

Cheers,
