I haven't used Seamonkey in close to 15 years, but how does advanced search in the mail & news part of it in that differ from Thunderbird? I can right-click on one of the folders in my email account in Thunderbird and get a modal window where I can add or remove criteria to search for things based on header contents, attachment presence, junk status, etc.

It's similar to what I remember Seamonkey (and and the Mozilla application suite that preceded it) having.

Or are you comparing the quick filter feature in Thunderbird with advanced search in Seamonkey?



I think this could be it. Perhaps I did not explore Thunderbird enough to find the exact match feature. I was surprised because Thuderbird and Seamonkey should be from the same code base, so they should behave similar.

Anyway, thanks for your reply. I might try Thunderbird again after some time. I am very satisfied with Seamonkey, but am afraid that they might scrap the project at any time.
