You have to admit the windows mail clients aren't the best.
Just look at your reply header...

What's wrong with my reply header?

Do you know how to use the search function in your package manager?
Do you know how to use grep, | more | less and redirrection?

Yes, and? What should I need to search for?

your mail client can do that, right?)

No, it can only search for subject or sender's name, but I could just grep it if I like...

Oh, and you call it a good email client?
In Outlook Express I can search after the from, to, subject, message body, in the current folder with messages only or in its subfolders, search from a starting date until an end date, in the messages that have attachments or not, and maybe other less useful criteria.
Don't tell me, I know. You don't need that. :-)

grep 'basic apps' -i -n sentfile
I think that is the right switch for ignore case...

See? I might also forget the right switches for the features I want to use, and that's why I like a mail client like Outlook Express. It doesn't require to remember anything.
