I did a quick search, manually, on the three       messages directly up the tree from this one for the word "Trump" and I did not       find it.

As a       consequence, body search is greyed out or not in the list at all.              This is because I an using leafnode, an nntp proxy server. It stores       locally all messages, so thunderbird effectively gets a copy sent from       the local disk, fast.              Setting TB to cache bodies would mean having two copies on my disk of       every message.              --       Cheers, Carlos.       ES🇪🇸, EU🇪🇺;              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
