[Hidden-tech] Leopard and Thunderbird 2

[Jonathon Podolsky]

Was it Thunderbird 2?  If not I'm wondering if the problems were  
solved in a later version than the one you had tried.

I agree that Mac Mail search is not the best.  Depending on the  
situation sometimes I use spotlight instead but there are definitely  
downsides to that approach.

It sounds like you are not encountering the conflict between your  
email host and Mac Mail -- which host are you using?
All the best,
