When selected logical operators like AND, OR should be possible. A search could look like this: sender=martin AND subject=hardware sender=hardware OR subject=hardware AND message="64bit processors" Reproducible: Always

I write this so the bug isn't automatically marked as resolved.

see bug 240454 - which asks for this in "quick search". is this what you want? Or do you want it for edit>find>search messages? (Also, you should state what version of thunderbird you are using)

Yes, this is in some sence that same as bug 240454, although that bug doesn't seam to deal with how to distinguish between subject, sender, message, etc.. Should I post a comment to that bug about that, so this bug can be closed?

No. I reread bug 240454 - it's not the same. It asks for logical operators, but strictly within the existing pulldown choices of sender, subject, subject or sender, etc. confirming - but edit>find>search messages may be a better place to impliment this (like "boolean chart" in bugzilla) than in quicksearch.

howdy y'all, [1] my tbird info ... Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8.0.2) Gecko/20060308 Thunderbird/1.5.0.2 - Build ID: 2006030803 [2] REQUEST - bug summary change FROM - "Advanced search against multiple target fields with logical operators like AND, OR" TO - something that includes "quicksearch" or "quick search" as this bug/rfe _seems_ to be about quicksearch and not about edit/find/search-messages. take care, lee

I'd rather a syntax like Google mail / Zimbra search: subject:hello in:Folders/personal
