GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 536884
Search bar should be smart to change search criteria based on folder you search in
Last modified: 2021-05-19 11:37:41 UTC
Search bar on evolution ui is very useful for quick look to e-mails. However it's better to have search bar behaving smarter than current behaviour. For example it can swith to 'search for receipents' for Sent or Outbox folders, since main target of search criteria for those folders is 'To' field instead of regular 'From' field.

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new enhancement request ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
