To my knowledge, no, Hypermail does not of itself support searches (I'll look pretty stupid if someone added that feature since v1.02...;-)
Since it's your system and you can get at the files, you can use a filesystem-based search, or of course a Web robot, or keep submitting to Altavista/Lycos etc...
I put together a (painfully slow) grep-based thing at e.g. http://vancouver-webpages.com/cgi-bin/webgrep/vanlug/1998-8 (try e.g. "COMDEX")
Something with an indexing engine would probably be better for a large list; "glimpse" perhaps
