No.  As a matter of resource conservation LISTSERV will only return the first
100 matching entries (in an email search, for WWW the limit is 50).  You must
perform successive searches to get all matching entries.  Note your search
command is ridiculously broad, and will probably return all messages ever posted
to the list.  The whole purpose of the search is to narrow the choices down to
only a few.
