Comment 1 Karsten Bräckelmann 2006-02-07 16:29:16 UTC 
Hmm, this works in 2.4. *Regression* bug, if this really does not work in 2.5. Adding usability Keyword, raising Priority and Severity, setting Target Milestone, just in case.

Confirmation with latest 2.5 CVS still pending.
Comment 2 André Klapper 2006-02-07 18:15:54 UTC 
hmm. this works for me perfectly and correct, running evo2.5.90 on suse9.3 here.
so i cannot confirm this. :-/
Comment 3 Rajeev R 2006-02-08 07:00:26 UTC 
I accept Andre's comments, it works perfectly on any account - say, IMAP, Exchange or Groupwise but it didnt work on mails "On this Computer".
Comment 4 André Klapper 2006-02-08 08:26:54 UTC 
...and i only tested with mails "On this computer", and it works perfectly. :-)
Comment 5 Rajeev R 2006-02-09 13:38:10 UTC 
Sorry for spam, it dint work with html mails.. In html mails, it highlights the matches but match count is zero always, atleast for me.. :)
Comment 6 Poornima 2006-02-09 16:35:24 UTC 
Changing severity of the bug.
Comment 7 André Klapper 2006-02-12 17:13:24 UTC 
hehe, trying this with a french html mail, my match count was one always (because there was one occurence in the *header*. interesting, so this means that the search does not work in the message body.

evo2.5.90 from yesterday's cvs, confirming.
Comment 8 André Klapper 2006-07-11 15:51:57 UTC 
still valid in 2.7.4.
Comment 9 André Klapper 2006-09-12 11:12:02 UTC

Comment 10 Matthew Barnes 2008-03-11 00:28:44 UTC 
Bumping version to a stable release.
Comment 11 Akhil Laddha 2008-08-18 06:02:27 UTC 
It had been fixed in 2.12, shall we close the bug ?
Comment 12 Akhil Laddha 2009-05-28 11:34:09 UTC 
Looks like valid in 2.27.2 when i tried with html mail
Comment 13 Matthew Barnes 2009-05-28 13:09:39 UTC 
It's still a bit buggy for me, even after I rewrote the UI for 2.27.2.
Tokenizer just isn't reporting correct results all the time.
Comment 14 Milan Crha 2010-03-25 09:51:48 UTC 
Still there on actual master, with an html mail.
