How to adjust the contacts search query in Thunderbird and Mozilla Addressbook?
The search field searches by default only in primaryemail, displayed Name, First Name and last name.
<code>?(or(PrimaryEmail,c,@V)(DisplayName,c,@V)(FirstName,c,@V)(LastName,c,@V))</code>
But hey! Who had the phone number ending with 6789 and called me last night? Or who lives in Germany? Or who was born in July?
It is possible to search in all fields - you can edit the search query in the advanced settings editor. Here is the [http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/arch/addrbook/hiddenprefs.html#Addressbook_Quick_Search_Query_Pref Description of how to set up the search query in Mozilla Suite, SeaMonkey and Thunderbird Adderssbook] and a [http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/mailnews/addrbook/public/nsIAddrDatabase.idl List of all Addressbook fields] (some are not displayed in the User Interface, though).
And here is an example query:
<code>?(or(PrimaryEmail,c,@V)(DisplayName,c,@V)(FirstName,c,@V)(LastName,c,@V)<br />
(SecondEmail,c,@V)(HomePhone,c,@V)(CellularNumber,c,@V)(Notes,c,@V))</code>
This way, you can search in those fields, you really want.

Microformats are tiny standards to make passing crrtain types of information more structured and interoperable. The RSS revolution is an ideal example of unification for common progress. Now, it is time for unifying the standards for passing calendar information (events, appointments and their proposals), online calendars published by event organizers, online timetables of proffessors and teachers - either with busy/free info only, or with full read access, or even with full RW access for the participants of common projects.
