User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.3a5pre) Gecko/20100524 Minefield/3.7a5pre Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100521 Lanikai/3.1.1pre I'm trying to run a search through a large number of emails ( a few GB in size ), and even though the 'run search on server' is selected before I enter any criteria - it looks as if the search is being run locally on the laptop rather than on the server. Reproducible: Always Actual Results: Thunderbird using lots of resources on the client machine during the search : PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 4621 kbsingh 15 0 760m 277m 26m S 91.7 13.7 35:31.39 thunderbird-bin At the same time load on the server: top - 15:01:32 up 7 days, 6:58, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.04, 0.01 Tasks: 140 total, 1 running, 139 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Expected Results: Search should run on the server, therefore all activity for the search should be offloaded to the server resulting in minimal load / resource requirements on the client side In case this is relevant: I'm running cyrus-imapd

(In reply to Wayne Mery (:wsmwk) from comment #1) Wayne, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=546925 seems to focus on Custom-Headers, whereas my issue was that server side search is completely non functional in tbird3. But if marking this as a dependency helps move the overall search issue forward, sure.

(In reply to Wayne Mery (:wsmwk) from comment #1) > ludo, Karanbir, > duplicate of Bug 546925 ?? - custom header search is non-functional ('Run > search on server' of Edit/Find/Search Messages doesn't work any more) I'm the reporter of 546925. The two bugs (and maybe others) should be consolidated into one titled: HEADER SEARCH IS HARD CODED TO LOCAL Header searches never go to IMAP. Not the standard headers nor custom headers, only body searches will go to IMAP. 546925 exists because TB doesn't store custom headers in the standard indexes. It only stores them if GLODA/offline cache is enabled, which is the secondary cause of 546925. Karinbir didn't test body searches or he'd have realized his problem isn't wholesale broken IMAP search. Karinbir please run server/body search to confirm. This broken hard coded workflow logic is the root cause of both bugs. Pseudo code: if RUN_SEARCH_ON_SERVER=yes if BODY=yes do search IMAP else search local end if end if This pseudo code exactly describes the broken IMAP search behavior I seen, and applies to both bugs.

@Status: Confirm, present in TB 24.2.0 @Platform: should be ALL, Windows is affected the same To repeat Stan: As can be seen in wireshark, only body searches will go to IMAP, header searches (subject, etc.) will be done locally, regardless of ticking the "search on server" radio button in the ctrl-shift-F "find" dialogue.
