        Hi,
I second that.

I'd only add that it also depends on the other setting (like the "in"
part of the search, which may ideally say "Current Folder") and on the
account type. For example IMAP can do server-side searches in the body,
when the account is connected.

The behavior depends on the Evolution version too. The 3.36.3 contains
some fixes for the search, but also some regressions, which are
addressed in the current 3.36.4 stable version. The search in the
message body is much quicker there, especially with the IMAP and
server-side search available.
