Dean's post above did fix this stupid issue for me on Ubuntu. The
global-messages-db.sqlite is located in ~/.thunderbird/[accountfolder]
where [accountfolder] for me is some hashed string followed by
".default". I quit Thunderbird, deleted that file (making a copy in
case), and restarted Thunderbird. Everything works now.

The post Dean linked to also says to make sure that
Edit->Preferences->Advanced->General->Enable Global Search and Indexer
is ticked (it was for me).

Thanks Dean!
