Re: [PCWorks] Does anyone know of a way to search the email in your Inbox for something in the HEADERS?

In Thunderbird you can search tags in the headers, what are you 
searching for?

Or you could open your inbox file in a plain text editor and search the 
source, I've had to do this a couple times years back when I was a Notes 
admin and it was a pain even though all the email stores were dumped 
into a database to supposedly make such a thing easier(?). You might 
also try a basic html editor like Arachnophilia to view the file and 
search through it that way.
