Looking at the Thunderbird 3.x screen shots it looks like they have added

I don't see anything like that yet in SM2.x. Are there plans to pull
those
search capabilities into a future version of SM? When? Are there good
e-mail
search enhancements plug ins out for SM 2.x that I should look at?

One of the biggest things keeping my from finally ditching Eudora as my
primary e-mail source for SM is the amazing search capabilities in Eudora
verses the lacking search abilities in SM and Thunderbird 2.x (I have no
experience with Thunderbird 3.x). I was holding out for Eudora 8.x but
three years into the project they are still don't have a 1.0 release.
Given
this I'm wondering if Seamonkey will have any relief in sight.


I haven't used the "Advanced" options available, if you click the button
next to
the regular search box, if you have tried it, what is not available that
you are
looking for?

The "Advanced" options tab is very very limited and very very slow. Those features have not changed since SM1.x days and are similar to thunderbird 2.x. Thunderbird 3 touted a totally redesigned and improved search capability. I have not yet been able to try them.

I am looking for more complex search with more control over multiple keywords, folders searched, relevance, areas of e-mail to search etc. Eudora had all this ability, seamonkey does not. when your looking though over 10 years of e-mail from several addresses and companies the existing tools are not complex enough for me right now.

Looking here
http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/features/#tabs-search
and other places I have looked makes it look like Thunderbird has some more advanced features they rolled in.
