Windows Search and Thunderbird

Hello everybody,

I was trying to set up Windows Search in order to search my Thunderbird messages. Has anyone had success on that? What has to be done?

Some more detail: I have found the Thunderbird checkbox "Globale Suche und Nachrichtenindizierung aktivieren" (activate global search and indexing of messages) (about:config) on the properties pane. This seems to relate to a Thunderbird internal search, correct?

I am using Thunderbird Portable 3.0.1, located on my harddrive; Windows Search 4 (latest version), both on an XP SP3 system.

Thanks for your help!

No Thunderbird

Windows Search doesn't support Thunderbird Portable, or any other portable app for that matter. I'm not even sure it supports Thunderbird locally installed.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
