"INDEX listname" doesn't return the index of messages.  It returns the
index of notebook archives (some call these notelogs, or archive logs)
that <contain> the messages.  (The only exception would be if you have
the notebook frequency set to "Separate", in which case you get a separate
"notelog" for each message, but if you're using web archives you're not
set to "Separate", because the web archive interface doesn't support
"Separate" notelogs.)
