Quick search no longer searches on parts of words, only whole words. How do I fix this?

Quick search no longer searches on parts of words, only whole words. So for Example, if I were normally searching for my colleague with the last name of chadwick, I would type c then h then a then d until the list on left chadwick. Now, when I do a search on "chadw" nothing comes up and i have to type in the full word or name. I am a victim of one of these recent "upgrades" I guess.

Never mind. It was because I had the search set to searching the body of all the messages.
