302396 - Search and Filter doesn't search for multiline special header field.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 124641

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Felipe Contreras]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

While searching and executing a filter Thunderbird only uses the first line of a
multiline header field, for example in "CC" or "List-Id".

See bug 274753 which shows confirmations. It states that it happens only on
filter so I'm creating another bug report, hopefully this one will catch the eye
of someone.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find a message that has lots of CC (or any special header field).
2. View the source of the message, and choose text that is *not* on the
first line.
3. Search for this line on the CC header field (or the header field used).
Actual Results:  
The message isn't found.

Expected Results:  
Find the message.
