Search suggestion

Would it be possible to modify the search results for 'search by author nickname' so that in the header field for each conversation you see not the time and date of the latest contribution from the searched nickname, but the time and date of the latest contribution to that conversation. That way you'd be able to see whether the conversation is still active. This would be useful if, say, you'd been on holiday and wanted to catch up. Alternatively, could we have an extra search option that would allow you to search for conversations active since XYZ date, which include author ABC?

RobinW - yes I s'pose you can already do that. And 2004 has now been added.

No, you can't actually search the second way, because what happens is you get threads to which ABC contributed since XYZ date. What I meant was searching for threads to which ABC contributed, and which have had further contributions since XYZ date.
