Using apr26 commercial trunk build.
Since Offline should land fairly soon (I hope) I'm logging this bug to track the
need for handling search when offline.
David Bienvenu emailed me earlier in the year and stated: "I don't think we've
scheduled time to implement offline search so I think we'll just fail (or
disable searching of news or imap servers while offline in the search UI) . In
the future, we'll definitely support offline search the way we did in 4.x "
Although I know Offline is not yet fully implemented, I see in the current
commercial trunk build we don't do any offline search handling at all:
1. we don't error when initiating news/IMAP searches
2. the search doesn't fail or time out
3. Stop doesn't work, user must close dialog to stop.

well, actually, I did do most of the backend work to do offline search - it's
just a matter of checking the offline state and using tbe offline search (I
think). So I'll look at handling this.

I have this partly working - searching imap folders by header while offline
works, but news fails. I don't think body search of imap folders while offline
works.

looks good to me.

So, to clarify: we're going with it partly working as you described or did you
get it working more completely? Search will be enabled, then, in all instances
but may fail it some situations without and error to user?

the one caveat still stands - not sure what body search for imap messages will
do. Since there's no guarantee that you've downloaded message bodies for a
particular imap folder, I'm not sure how meaningful it would be to search the
bodies. What did 4.x do?

4.x on offline IMAP body search: If it had the bodies for a folder, all went
smoothly. If not, it just reported no matches.

Looks OK using:
2001-05-21-04 win98 commercial trunk build
2001-05-21-08 linux rh6.2 commercial trunk build
2001-05-17-08 mac OS 9.0
Any specific issues noticed will be logged separately.
Generally checked for News, IMAP.
Search works on subject/sender headers. Results, if msg downloaded for offline
is opened and displayed. Results which haven't been downloaded display the
appropriate "not downloaded for offline" text.
