            Bug ID: 364903
           Summary: Certain search terms do not work, such as 'equals' and
                    'does not contain'
           Product: kmail2
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: search

(Using Kontact Version 4.14.10, but the issue is not new to that version)

If I go to "Find Messages" and specify a search criteria of "Subject" "does not
contain" "some string", my result set contains *only* results that contain
"some string"

Let's say I have a message with a subject of "[Backups 0017611]: somehost -
Backup - 43251 - OK"

If I search for "Subject" "does not contain" "Backups", that message will
appear in my result set. Likewise, if I search for "Subject" "equals"
"Backups", that message will appear in my result set. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have a message with a subject of "[Backups 0017611]: somehost - Backup -
43251 - OK"
2. search for "Subject" "does not contain" "Backups", that message will appear
in my result set. 
3. search for "Subject" "equals"Backups", that message will appear in my result
set. 

Actual Results:  
"[Backups 0017611]: somehost - Backup - 43251 - OK" appears in result set

Expected Results:  
"[Backups 0017611]: somehost - Backup - 43251 - OK" should not appear in result
set.

The lack of these search mechanisms makes searching my mail very difficult...
