Just curious, how does Archiving get in the way? I've always found it a million times better than basically any of the other email clients archiving processes.

  It works well, and I like it. But it interferes with search. I have two ways of archiving: * Manuall mail older than 2 years off my server into a local storage. The process is somwhat clumsy, but works. * Conssitently archive anything that is done, keeping inbox(0) using the "archive" feature in TB - hotkey 'a'. I did find that often archiving in other mailclients, or in thunderbird itself (all using IMAP, no shared storage on my machine) makes thunderbird's search index break. about 20% of the mails in my archive are not searchable. Only after hunting down the "rebuild search index feature" can it be fixed. The fact that such a feature exists, alone is worrying in several ways.
