Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 319831

(MailNews Core :: Search, defect)

Description

[Mike Cowperthwaite]

TB 1.5, 2b1; SM 1.5a.

When using Search Messages on an IMAP account or folder, and searching on any of the address fields (From, To, CC, To or CC), the only matching criteria provided are "contains" and "doesn't contain."  Searching from POP, or filtering on POP or IMAP, these fields all contain is, isn't, begins with, ends with (none of which are actually all that useful parsing these fields) and the From: field also provides "is/isn't in my address book" (which would be useful for the other address fields as well: bug 187768).

Steps to reproduce:
1) Set up an IMAP account
2) On the account or a folder, select   Search Messages
3) Set the first criterion's header to From
4) Click the match-mode dropdown

Actual results:
4) dropdown only shows "contains" and "doesn't contain"

Expected results:
4) dropdown shows the same set of match-modes seen when filtering, or when searching POP, especially including "is in my address book" and "isn't in my address book."
