Hi Mark,

Hmm.  If I set admin_member_chunksize > than subscribers then global
search works.  If admin_member_chunksize < subscribers, search only
works on the selected (or default) chunk.  I have a moderately
modified mailman system so it's probably something not working
correctly after recent patches.

Thanks anyways,
