Searching

Post by Prince_Rogue »

At one time, when using Body as search criteria in TB I would get matches. Not any longer. Was there a change along the way or is it a bug? Other criteria works. I focus on the folder I want to search then bring up search and select the option such as Body then enter the word or words I am looking for.

How is the account set up in Thunderbird, as POP or IMAP? Find out using menu path Tools->Account Settings->Server Settings->Server Type at the top right of the dialogue.

IMAP, but your question prompted me to check something. This search works if I focus on the account, not a folder. So I will remember to do that. Thanks Dan.
