The archives are horribly messy and line breaks don't always happen.

Seconded. FWIW, the archives are a completely useless tool, and many messages over the years have gone 404, sadly. -Chad

Personally, I use Gmane (gmane.org), and read this list via the gmane.org.wikimedia.foundation newsgroup - there is a web interface that appears to allow searching (although I haven't tried it to see how well it works), as well as using a news reader. - -- ABCD
