My DT database (v2.0pb8) has a huge variety of stuff in it. I use it as a “junk drawer” of sorts. One of the types of data I store in it is email messages. I use the “Add Message(s) to Devonthink” script from Apple Mail (I’m on SL, 10.6.2). The add action works fine, and the email message appears as expected in DTPro.
In previous versions, I was able to enter a search term in the search box (upper right corner) and it would find text in the bodies of various emails - worked like a charm when trying to find, for instance, when i received an order confirmation for a piece of software. Now, in pb8, it doesn’t seem to search in the email bodies at all. I get subject/filename matches, but nothing from within the .eml files.
for instance, i have an email with my registration info for USB Overdrive. The software title appears in the email body, but not in the filename. Performing a search for “overdrive” returns no results, even though i’m looking at the message in question and staring at the text “USB Overdrive” (case doesn’t seem to make a difference). I’ve tried this with multiple search terms (all single words, so no wildcards or boolean keywords or anything).
Am i missing something, or has this function been changed?
