Details

User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Build Identifier: A nice feature of Netscape 7.2 Mail is that the "quick search" bar right above the list of messages by default searched "Subject or Sender" in all folders EXCEPT for the "Sent" and "Drafts" folders. For those folders, the quick search searched "Subject or RECIPIENT". This makes sense because all the items in the Sent and Drafts folder are bound to have the same sender (you). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Click on "Sent" or "Drafts" folder in Thunderbird 1.0 (IMAP) 2. Look at the SEARCH toolbar. Actual Results: It has options to search by "sender" Expected Results: It would be better to search by "recipient" -- since this is the Sent folder.
