Experimenting with the filtering, it seems that if you double-click on an item in a column it does a filter on that, like "all messages where From = j...@doe.com," and then you get get the blue bar showing what the filter is. Then if you additionally click something else, like a Subject, you get a result set that compounds the two filters, like "From = j...@doe.com" AND "Subject = Devonthink"), but you still only have one blue bar, and it reflects only the most recent addition to the filter chain. The minus/hyphen removes all filters, just like ESC. It would be nice to have stacked blue bars showing all filters, and be able to minus out individual filters without removing them all ... and to drag them to change order, and select ALL or ANY.

Note that ⌘. also works (which is a system-wide and very useful shortcut to hit Cancel buttons in general). With respect to removing “filters” then also note these options:

* Right-click a filter item to select “Remove Search Item”.
* Hold down ⌥ (option) when clicking on a search item in order to remove it.

I see; I didn't notice that the filters were chained with ">" in the one blue bar.

When I filter by "from:mailingl...@freron.com" and then by "Subject:Devonthink" and then remove "Subject:Devonthink" it does return me to the results of the "from:mailingl...@freron.com" filter. But if I remove the "from:mailingl...@freron.com" filter, it doesn't change the results. In other words, it doesn't do an overall "Subject:Devonthink" filter with not other filters applied, but rather retains the "from:mailingl...@freron.com" silently an inexplicitly.
