Background: I am attempting to perform a Saved Search of 20+ keywords (looking for any of these words in the body of each email). The problem is I'm trying to execute this search on 6 email accounts containing a total of 50,000+ emails.

I have created the Saved Search criteria and attempted to store in my Local Folders. I have waited over 24hrs but it looks like nothing is happening. No emails are saved locally in the folder on my PC.

I have also tried breaking this search up by trying 1 keyword on 1 email account. This has produced the same results.

If anyone has troubleshooting ideas, please advise ASAP. Thanks

Is the mail stored locally or is the search supposedly searching a remote server IMAP folders contents.

I have allowed all 6 email accounts to be synced down locally first before performing the searches.

Just FYI, this was a fresh install of Thunderbird on Windows 10.
