I use TBird. I believe there are two search mechanisms: 1) The "Search Messages" dialog that you get to from the menu Edit/Find/Search Messages... Can you say "slow"? I knew you could! I tried this just now, and it seems to be stuck "building a summary file for" one of my local folders. 2) The "Search" box that appears in the title bar. (What is it with scattering tools all around the outside of an app?) This is fast. The advantage of (1) is that you can limit its search to particular locations, but you pay for that with sluggishness.
