238816 - MailViews and Search on custom-header: implement new choices for matching criteria

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(MailNews Core :: Search, enhancement)

Description

[Mike Cowperthwaite]

In bug 224318, message filters were enhanced such that when a custom filter was 
selected as a criterion, the match selections now include "doesn't contain" and 
"isn't".  These options should be brought over to MailViews and Search.

David, is this hard?  I was trying to figure this out, and I think the code that 
needs to be tweaked is in  nsMsgLocalSearch.cpp  at
  nsMsgSearchValidityManager::InitLocalNewsTable()

But this stuff is pretty confusing; for instance, I don't know why the word 
"News" is part of that method name.

I didn't even look at the IMAP case.

These criteria also affect manual filters, which use the same validity table. I think they work, it is as simple as enabling them.
