If your mail folders are huge, a "body" search will take a long time --
are you're sure it's stalled, and not merely still searching?



Well, no more results are reported after a certain point, even if I
search for something very common.


Note also that a body search doesn't look at the display text visible to 
the human eye, but the source code. So if your search string is 
something like "font," you'll get lots of irrelevant hits.
