Hello,

I have tried to use https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/ 
without much success. If I type, for instance 
~org-babel-expand-src-block~ and ask for /reverse chronological order/ 
the first results are from 2009, then from 2008 and later from 2014.

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/cgi-bin/namazu.cgi?query=org-babel-expand-src-block&submit=Search%21&idxname=emacs-orgmode&max=20&result=normal&sort=date%3Alate

Then, if I ask for /chronological order/ I get 2010, 2009, etc.

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/cgi-bin/namazu.cgi?query=org-babel-expand-src-block&submit=Search%21&idxname=emacs-orgmode&max=20&result=normal&sort=date%3Aearly

Thus, I am currently using a web search engine like this:
site:https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode 
org-babel-expand-src-block, and I do get results from recent years.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

You're not doing anything wrong, it's just not a very good search
engine.

Indeed.  In the meantime, this might also be useful, as it has a decent
UI.  I haven't tested its searching extensively, but it seems to give
more useful results than the lists.gnu.org server.
