Mail's search not working?

it's me, mail's search seems not working.

manages give me results when enter someone's name.. moment i'm looking specific words doesn't show me @ all. doesn't seem right.. right?

i'm using lion, way.

 

time reset things.

1. time speed mail. make sure mail closed , use freeware speedmail , run (while mail closed down).

2. re-index spotlight: open /applications/utilities/terminal , put in command

code:

sudo mdutil -e /

(you can copy code , run it). leave terminal open until prompt re-index have started. can take while if have big hard drive take while.

try these 2 steps see if helps mail's search. when try these steps make sure mail not running!

luck.
