Обсуждение: Issue report: search function not working for private lists
There are several issues that prevent the correct installation of search functions for private lists: - it is only possible to define a single archive search server in pgweb's settings.py, which makes it impossible to defineboth a public and a private archives server, - there does not seem to be any kind of permissions verifications in pgweb/search/views.py that would allow only users subscribedto a list to search into it. I've been told that this functionality did not indeed work for postresql.org's private lists. -- Célestin Matte

Yes, this is a known limitation. This is "documented" in a code comment:
if not settings.PUBLIC_ARCHIVES:
# We don't support searching of non-public archives at all at this point.
# XXX: room for future improvement
return HttpResponseForbidden('Not public archives')
