Hi Benny

As you could see I began my question at busycal ( [BusyMac Support #75374])
As stated in my openingspost I did enable Spotlight Search.
I did not (in Mailmate) specify another place for the message base.

I think this is the issue.

Spotlight handles ~/Library/ in a special way that does not seem to be configurable in El Capitan. In the past, if you unset the 'hidden' flag on ~/Library/, Spotlight would index it and show results in Finder searches of your home directory or "This Mac." In El Capitan, this has changed. Unless you explicitly search ~/Library/ (or a subdirectory of it,) you are not shown results inside it in Finder searches. I'm not sure how that relates to the BusyCal interaction with the Spotlight/metadata APIs, but those may act in a similar way.

As stated in one of the help pages Spotlight is indeed the man in  the
middle who should do the trick. However: on the same page it is stated that
Spotlight ignores message files in presenting results.

That page (Title: Preferences) also says, immediately after that note:

        Therefore MailMate offers the slightly mysterious “Custom location”
        option which can be used to move the Messages folder to a Spotlight
        searched location
