[BS] Thunderbird Message Filters Sort messages by body with Google’s IMAP.gmail.com

So I recently bought a new computer and have had to transfer my thunderbird settings from one computer to another. I used MozBackup to copy the account settings and folder structures, but the custom filters did not transfer over. Turns out there is a plugin extension that allows us to import/export custom filters here, but the extension would not work with Thunderbird 7.0.1. So I just began re-creating the filters. Turns out that the ‘body’ custom filter was was not available. This was terrible news. Thunderbird doesn’t have this feature setting because Thunderbird, when in imap mode, only reads the headers of the emails instead of the whole email when synchronizing   In order to restore the ‘body’ search option we need to set the mail account settings to store our emails on the hard disk. Tools->Account Settings Synchronization & Storage ->Advanced Tick all the folders you would like to have advanced storage on  (I tick all of my folders for every account. Best to have a record). Now ‘body’ should appear! Similar Posts: BlogSense 9.1.0.2 Remote Publishing with Email, Remote Publishing with PixelPipe, Bookmarking with Pixelpipe BlogSense Trick.
