Quick Filter does not search subfolders
I was using a Quick Filter search on an inbox and sent and then decided to check the Local folders and discovered that you have to turn down each subfolder and search it separately. Is there a way to have a quick filter search subfolders?
Chosen solution
No, Quick Folder search is for the active folder (why it's 'quick'), although you can apply the search when switching folders, by clicking the pin icon. Subfolders can be searched with Classic Search (Ctrl+Shift+F).

Thanks, I was not aware of the classic search as it is not in the menu bar, tools drop down. It only appears in the Thunderbird menu with the green dot and 3 lines, tools.
It's also under Edit/Find and the folder context menu.
The green dot indicates an update is available.
I am on Nebula 128.14.0esr and did see the option for Eclipse 140.4.0esr there. I can't seem to find a comparison with screenshots between the two versions. Is the interface the same except for a few new features like the appearance menu?
I have 128 and 144 running separate profiles, and the interface is practically the same. The 14x versions have the usual collection of improvements and regressions that appear each year.
