do you actually have that much of a need for such a thing?

anyways, you could rig a script to wget the file, extract it and then
grep+display text that the user requests.

i suggest you rig your bbs to run the door bill suggested, seems like less
hassle that way and seems to do what you want.

also on the facebook fidonet group a guy posted a url to site that searches
nodelists for text strings. you could always rig up something to scrape that.

i've been running bbses since 1992-93 and only had a few people ever send
netmails, aside from myself.
