>BTW. Another quirck is that 'Copy message header into the clipboard' doesn't work in my case anymore (Firefox).

Actually, it never worked in Firefox - it's considered clipboard hijacking or something. Maybe it worked for a while in FF 0.9.x or thereabouts. Then there was a setting where you could allow this, but it's been years since I saw it and I don't know whether it still exists - and I don't remember its name, anyway.

As for the search, yep, it would be nice to have the search by exact phrase (and then allow two-letter words and any special characters inside the quotes), because this is often frustrating. Looking for "@ x,y say" is impossible at the moment, because search field only allows quotes, digits and letters... well, we are programmers, not lawyers, the text we search for may be any type of character that's legal in code. Even "x,y say" isn't searchable because it contains a comma. And x y say can't be searched, because "Every word in the SEARCH FOR field should contain at least three characters if they are not within quotes." But you won't find it without a comma, and for "x y say" it delivers pages of irrelevant messages (I guess they weren't discussing @... say on the awards topic, but it came up).

Worst of all - I tried to experiment with this in another tab, but the alert() fired over _this_ tab, the one where I am writing this message, and the search page repainted it over this frame, overwriting what I was writing. Luckily (and luckily that I know this) it didn't reload the page when I navigated back, so the text I already wrote didn't vanish (and you'd be surprised how many sites will blank your entries when you navigate back, effectively forcing you to write everything from scratch). And when I got results, they weren't in the tab where I asked for them, but in _this_ frame again.
