That was helpful, I do not think I ever noticed that. But when I am using
e-mail it is a bit more difficult as there is no box. Usually a post number is
not mentioned. That the word message# is in grey reduces its visibility. Part
of ergonomic software design is to test a population of typical users and give
them a task and see if they can complete it. Often software designers discover
what seemed obvious to them was in effect, invisible to the typical user, in
which case, if there is time, they make a change. On the other hand the Search
bar at the top is rather prominent. A good design would allow the typing
'message #xxxxxx' in that box and would come up with results, but that does not
work unless the message# is in the message itself. If not it returns posts with
the word message in them. So the software has the search routines split into
two separate functions. I see the date functions in Advanced Search now do not
give error messages, but with my browser, still do not return a date range. I
am not usually interested in past posts so I do not use the search functions
that often.

Just popping back in quickly with a helpful note:
It's absurdly easy to find a post via the Website when you have the post
number, which was provided by the moderator in this case. Just go to the
Message View page. At the top, under the banner photo to the right, is a box
labeled "Message #," with a magnifying glass icon. Type the post number in the
box. Hit Return. Voila!
