Vista SP2: Windows Live mail seems NOT to be using Indexing service

Hello,
I have problem with unsuccessfull searching for e-mails in WLMail. I always
thought WLMail uses Vista's built-in indexing service and it seems to be
right - search is QUICK but BAD.

I reset and re-build index catalogue, made sure indexing attribute is set-up
for "c:\Users\MyUserName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail" etc etc
.... I still get incomplete search results.

Thanks for help

MP

Got it:

I had my ACCOUNT selected in left pane and went to Edit -> Find -> Message.
In this case search scope jumps to INBOX (and subfolders).

If I select ACCOUNT and Right-Click it -> find then search works as
supposed - looking thru all folders and subfolders of this account, not just
Inbox.

I believe this is a BUG
