Search should look through the message body.

I searched through the web, as well as this forum looking to see if this issue has been addressed, but I could not find anything, so if it has been addressed, or if I am doing someing wrong, I apologize.

When I searched for a message, the search algorithm did not look through the message body, it just looked through the subject line and the "from" field. I think this is a significant shortcoming that should be addressed. I did not submit this issue in the bugs section because I wasn't sure if this was intentional in the design, or that I wasn't doing something wrong.

Also, the search algorithm should look through all of the folders, not just the active one.

I agree completely. It was likely dropped because of the processing overhead. It should still be available with a configurable setting, perhaps with a default to not search message body. For small setups with only a few users this should not be a problem.
