User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/312.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/312
Build Identifier: Mozilla Thunderbird 1.0.2 (Macintosh/20050317)
I tried to search folder (message bodies) for some russian text, which I knew existed in some messages
and failed. When I tried to search for separate letters the search returned some pages that were entirely
in latin.
I used unicode keyboard for entering text, which works anywhere else in Thunderbird. Since the option
"Fing in this message" worked just fine. I suspect that "Search Messages" do not recode its query
according to the charset of every single message. This makes it possible to search only for english
text.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to "Edit -> Find -> Search Messages"
2. Search for any non-english text
3.
Actual Results:
Incorrect or missing search results
Expected Results:
search messages taking into account charset

I can also reproduce it: searching for japanese text works with "search in
message" but not with "search in folder"
I am using Thunderbird version 1.0.6 (20050727) included in Ubuntu Hoary.

btw, sorry to have forgotten that, but I'm using Ubuntu Linux on x86, so it's
not a MacOs-specific bug...

I have a same result, even if I try to search for an English text:
My last try:
I have had some messages contained the word "pixum". I would to know, how many such messages I have.
I searched for "pixum", I got 13 messages. I looked a messages source this (8 bit, text/plain, charset 8859-15) messages, but they didn't contained the word "pixum". The messages containing the word were not between the founded messages.
I am using Thunderbird, Version 1.5.0.8 (20061025), Hungarian.
OS is MS XP, version 5.1.2600

I cannot find emails in my 'entire-message' search (which i should find) that have encoding quoted-printable.
Before, emails with the same content were sent without encoding header, and I can find those emails in my search.
Looks like the encoding header has something to do with it, and not specific UTF-8
An example email that can't be found when searching (e.g. for 'the'):

Local mail folder(POP3, "Local Folders")? IMAP folder?
If IMAP, IMAP folder with offline-use=On? Or IMAP folder with offline-use=Off?
If IMAP folder && offline-use=Off && non-quoted-printable / non-base64, see Bug 404255.
Sorry but I don't know about online search of IMAP folder && quoted-printable / base64 case.

Hmm, I don't seem to be able to reproduce the failed search (quoted printable) with v 2.0.0.22, so it might have been fixed already?!

I have reproduced the bug now; I have some mails that can't be found whatever I type as seach, and I have kind of identical mails that can be found. It does not matter if I copy the mail to a different IMAP folder; even if I copy it as single mail in an empty folder, I can search whatever I want, the mail cannot be found.
The mails are error mails from a website, and for the same error I get mails that can be found and that cannot. I don't see the difference.
It seems to be fixed in Thunderbird 3.0b3, I can find the mails there when searching. Im not sure if bug 249841 was the cause, but I'm happy :)
