It's a bit limiting to have to search for fields. And it doesn't
really solve my need - I'd like to say something like "xmessagebody
contains gary".

That allows me to find all the messages related to Gary.

There isn't an "xmessagebody" - is there? Or even
an "xmessagebodyfirstword". That would be cool.
