Those are certainly the best technical approches

 Just out of curiosity I tried removing the "is not" conditions(2) and the search completed in no time and has all the relevant mail in it. So there appears to be something with that condition...
Maybe the above would help flush that out...I always try the lists before posting bugs just to avoid user issue clogging the system. If this does turn out to be a bug I will certainly report it. Besides I don't think anyone here minds? Is this in part what this list is for? If not then my understanding of mailing lists is very inaccurate.
