        Hi,
that works properly for me, though I'm on the current development
version, which is quite the same as the current stable version 3.44.0.
Your 3.36.5 is ancient. When I enter:

   [ Subject ]  [ is ] [ Changing color ]

in this mailing list folder, then it doesn't pick any message, but when
I change it to:

   [ Subject ]  [ contains ] [ Changing color ]

then it finds two messages.

The text to search for is split into separate words first. You can
enclose multiple words into double quotes, to let them behave like a
single word. An example:

   [ Subject ]  [ contains ] [ "Changing color" ]

doesn't find anything, but

   [ Subject ]  [ contains ] [ "exact search" ]

does find this thread.

        Bye,
        Milan
