The search bar just searches the current folder, can't see any way of making it do more. The only way I can see to do a more sophisticated search is "Find" in the "Edit" menu.

Thank you Cliff,
ok sorry about that. Yes there's only one inbox. Do you mean I would need to use the menu under 'edit' then 'find' to search subfolders? Is there a way to do this by using the search bar in the upper right hand corner?

More a general Thunderbird question than an extension specific one. However, in Thunderbird's search Window if you select search "Inbox" and select "Search subfolders" this should search all messages (may take some time though!). Depending on your particular set up you may have separate inboxes for each account, as far as I know you can only search one inbox (and all its subfolders) at a time.

I have a lot of folders and I can only search for a message if I know what folder to look in. How can I search through all folders?
