It does ... but perhaps not as expected (or as ideal).

Yes and no.

Note that the default is "within the last year".  That may not be ideal
though and perhaps we should change it.

"big" is perhaps over-stating it, and most of it is actually about ZFS
anyway, though a few of the initial emails on the thread are
informative.

Changing date to 'anytime', sorting by 'date' and using 'database
backup' instead turns this thread up pretty quickly (number 7):

https://www.postgresql.org/search/?m=1&q=database+backup&l=&d=-1&s=d

That said, we should really be including the Subject line in the search
and I don't think we are today (looks like we just search the body).
The code is available for review here:

https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=pgarchives.git;a=summary

Patches to improve certainly welcome.

Thanks,

Stephen
