When I look at preferences, the box fox 'Enable Global Search and Indexer' is still unchecked. If I check it, say ok, and then go back in and un check it again, Thunderbird resumes correct functionality. This has happened five times already. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: Not sure what happens to cause it, except that it never happens so long as thunderbird remains running. It only happens after it's opened after being closed (but not every time).

Trel, I don't quite understand your "steps". Please list them as 1. 2. 3.... Also, do you see anything in the error console? bug 539638 also reports enable/disable issue
I can't give 'step's since I don't know for sure what's causing it. All I can say is, sometimes when I start Thunderbird and go to filter messages, I find that global search has re-enabled itself (though the checkbox still shows it as not enabled)
Ok I can give steps to reproduce, but it's not 100%. 1. Uncheck the option to use the global search indexer. 2. Close program 3. Reopen program 4. Recieve mail on imap connection 5. type something in the search bar and hit enter Expected results: list is filtered to show items with search phrase in subject line or sender Actual results: it attempts to do a search Correcting the behavior is done by going and re-enabling the global search indexer, saying ok, then going back in and unchecking it again. It lasts the whole time the programs is open, but then goes away again once it's closed and re-opened.
