I've used SM's Search Messages to find stuff in my local system email

Now, running SM 2.46, that won't work when I search for content in this
news group. specifically, when I search the content for a word I know is
there, it comes up blank.

Searching for a From or Subject string does work.

The same  is happening when I search local system archives other news
groups I subscribe to.

However, a Content search does work on my archived personal email material.

Anyone else seen this problem or know what might cause it?

I seem to recall that you might need to download the newsgroup posts onto your hard drive in order to do a search of the posts, because the NG posts are not, normally, downloaded onto your hard drive!!

Note the reference in my above post to "local system archives. " The emails ARE on my HD if I have read them, which I have.

And now, I must report that "Option" has entirely disappeared from the drop-down box of search options, although all the other search options continue to be listed. What the heck is going on??
