Nope, it's not blank.  But you seem to see something there I don't.
Here's the contents, please show me where it tells me how to find a
phrase.  I've also looked at the Regex help page before, which is
useful.

The Message Finder is an excellent resource to have at your disposal. It
will hunt down a message for you and find it wherever it may be lurking.
To call the message finder, press F7 button in the Main Window or select
Search item of the Tools menu.

First the Search for prompt. This is where you can type in what you are
looking for. The message finder will accept '&', '|' and '~' special
characters to denote AND, OR and NOT operations within the search
string. If you need to be more sophisticated with your search string,
you can also search using Regular Expressions by turning on the option
on the Advanced tab.

The Scope section allows you to specify which areas of the message
should be searched. Most of these are pretty self-evident. The only one
of these options disjointed from the original message itself is the
Memo, which can be added to a message as a kind of post-it note. The
other options all restrict the search to specific areas of the message -
Sender, Recipient, Subject, Headers and Body and the ubiquitous Anywhere
option, which includes all of the other options.

The Look in folders section allows you to quickly specify which accounts
and folders should be included when looking for the message you are
trying to track down. In order to work with sub-dClick right button of
mouse to bring up a popup menu where you can Select All (<Ctrl+A>),
Unselect All (<Ctrl+U>), Select including sub-folders (<Ctrl+S>),
Unselect including sub-folders (<Ctrl+I>).

The Advanced options allow you to place further constraints on the
search. You can look for messages with specific flags (Replied, Read,
Unread, Flagged, etc.) or before and/or after a certain date and more
besides.
