[OSX-Users] searching Apple mail on Mac??

Assuming you've already done Step 1, give Step 2 a go as well. That's 
helped me in the past (when I used Mail.app).

Cheers,
Jules.

  us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that afterward we see
  ourselves as we really are, and not merely as we might like to be.'
