    Searching Private Messages

    Is it possible to search private messages? If so, how? If not, is it an existing feature which needs to be enabled without much effort?

    You can always download them into a text or xml file and then do a search from there..


    Or you should have grouped them into folder, so they didn't get lost in the first place..

    Searching is done using an index file. Because PMs are private, I don't believe they are added into this index. I've never seen a setting to change this. NoteMe's suggestions are the best for searching them (which is to download them).
