This has been addressed in the release of Version 1.6

Let me know what you think.

Thank you for the feedback, it is always much appreciated.

I could claim artistic differences (I believe that you can get everything done either way, e.g., searching backwards through 2010 for a mail with bread in the subject), but actually, my clincher here was degree of difficulty. Filtering or highlighting means searching the entire body of messages before you are, in theory, ready to present an answer, and for large message folders, this just takes too long. Outlook deals with this by presenting partial results, then adding to them as a background worker comes up with more. Pretty complex. But if you only look for one message at a time, the implementation is much simpler and you only get the delays in the extreme cases of long stretches between hits, not on every search through a large folder.

There isn't. However, it would be fairly simple to add one that searched through headline information (subject, to, from). Would this be of any use to you? A full text search of email content is rather beyond the intended scope of the tool.

Hello and thanks. Yes! A search as you describe would be incredibly useful. Thanks again.

Search works -yeah!!!

I think would be better highlighting matching messages and/or filtered list
