thunderbird 102.3

my system date settings are yy-MM-dd and this reflects in the normal mail folders and in the headers. i.e. performing as expected

however, when searching by date, the default date in the search box is today's date, in the format: MM-yyyy-dd if i change the proposed search dates to be in the system format, yy-MM-dd, it returns the results as per the search box's format MM-yyyy-dd

i've tried setting the customised short, medium, long date formats in the config editor, but it makes no difference to the search by date format

are there any work arounds to this bizarre date format?

thanks
