Missing emails in search

I have a gmail account going back to 2010 that I'd like to use Thunderbird as a "live backup" for.

It's completed importing all the messages over imap but when I compare the search results for simple and unambiguous search terms in Thunderbird vs in gmail, Thunderbird is missing a lot. Examples:

"[friend]@gmail.com" -- hundreds of results going back to 2015, then a few in 2014, then nothing earlier. Gmail shows hundreds of results in 2014 and 2013 as well.

"2011": lots of results from 2012 onwards, but only 4 results that are actually from the year 2011.

"2010": results look plausible on the timeline (hundreds of results in 2010, 2011, 2012) but clicking into 2010 shows that the earliest results are in October. In gmail the earliest results are in March.

Any suggestions on troubleshooting?

If you're using Global Search, Ctrl+K, check that the relevant folders in TB are included in Global Search (context menu, Properties). If you add folders to GS, rebuild the database. Also, compare results using Classic Search, Ctrl+Shift+F, to search an account or folder.

Thanks, this is the default/global search. I've rebuilt the database (and verified that the All Mail folder is included) but I'm not seeing any improvement in the results.

Classic Search appears to work correctly, just much slower. (The "All Mail" mbox file is almost 16GB.)

Do you think this is worth turning into a bug report?

I don't think it would receive much attention as a bug report unless you could present easy steps to reproduce, on a new profile with a single account.

Most users unsubscribe All Mail to save space and eliminate redundant messages. See the All Mail section here.
