Seconded.  Downloading the archives and grepping through them
would probably work quite well.

I personally use notmuch [0], which has great tagging and search
facilities.  After setting up notmuch, you would download the
archives, use mb2md to convert them from mbox to maildir, and
have notmuch index them.  Then you'd search the archives using
either the notmuch cli (e.g. notmuch search -- yourquery) in the
terminal, or using one of its frontends such as notmuch-emacs or
notmuch-mutt.
