So in future each admin can change the default search criteria?  
Wouldn't it be nice, that a user can change this. If you where admin  
on a webmail I use, at least on of us would be sad ;)

Ok, that is correct. But I have a subfolder with 20000 mails and it  
took ages for the result list (ok ca. 60s).

What about to add FROM/TO/CC/BCC/Subject to the set of predefined  
searches? (Or the ability to add custom searches to the list).

I think a search filter "Adress or Subject" is a good compromise  
between fuzzy enough and performance.
