(I would not be shocked if this is a duplicate, but I was astonish to not find a bug on this, not even one closed a dup - http://bit.ly/hLphqZ and http://bit.ly/eD4rUz ) 1. create a contact 2. enter unique info for "additional email" zzz@zwho.com 3. search on zzz@zwho.com no hits. which is surprising please do not dupe to Bug 298438 - Address book quick search should search in whole address card

I, too, ran across this issue. After about 10 minutes of searching, I have been unable to find another report of this problem. Here's how I would phrase the problem: Address book search fails to find email address in "Additional Email" field of contact. (This phrasing may help others find this problem report.)
