This sounds like the Search Messages window has its results pane collapsed.
Directly above the status bar is a extra bar; if you move the cursor over the bar, the cursor will change into an up-down arrow.  Drag the bar upwards: that should reveal the results pane.  xref bug 297006.

Why did you resolve this as Wontfix?  Your screenshot is helpful, and shows that my comment 1 was not about the problem you're seeing; I'll confirm this bug based on the screenshot.
