TB102 and several previous versions: This Addon is damaged: cannot search subjects.
I moved to /addon/search-for/ which seems to work these days.

I've used this add-on for years. It worked perfectly and was very useful. But for some reasons it does not work anymore. I've a Mac and v 102.5 of Thunderbird. I've tried to uninstall and re-install the add-on many times, but nothing.

Doesn't do anything. I have hundreds of emails tagged "followup", when I search for tag:followup it finds nothing. It tells me to hit return again to expand the search to all folders, so I do, and it finds nothing again. Uninstalling.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.6.3).which operating system and TB version? Can you give more info in the issue section on github?

I've hated the standard TB search facility so much that I've had all incoming mail copied to gmail where the search is so much better! But that's only incoming mail, not outgoing. Expression Search is the ultimate solution. Powerful and so easy to find elusive emails. Wish I'd known about it years ago.

It's great, but for some reason it stops working every now and then. For the people that can't get it to work at all, try installing it from the add-on page: https://addons.thunderbird.net/nl/thunderbird/addon/expression-search-ng/?src=ss - that seems to make it active.

I just plain can't get it to do anything. The search works exactly the same as it ever did. "from:john" only finds emails with the string "from john" somewhere in them.

I would love using this plugin, but I'm having the same problem other users have reported. I'm with thunderbird 91.7.0 on Mac OSX and the search bar doesn't show up.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?

I have used this for a while now and love it. I did have to reinstall my thunderbird setup and added NG search and have activated it. However, the search bar doesn't show up. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Does not work. Search box remains the same.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.1).please tell which operating system and addon version. As of now, it is working in TB 91.2.1 on Win 10 pro. Preferably, leave more info in the github issues section https://github.com/opto/Expression-Search-NG/issues.
