Thunderbird question ...

[unixronin]

... Does anyone among you know any way to configure Thunderbird 3.x so as to get the old Thunderbird 2.x on-the-fly message searching functionality back?  Type in the search box and have the filter applied right there and then to the open folder?  The improved-to-the-point-of-not-working search feature in Thunderbird 3.0 is driving me nuts.

I have the drop-down set to 'subject or from filter'. I type in a few letters of something PLAINLY VISIBLE in the folder, nothing happens; hit Enter, and get a new tab telling me it found nothing.
