I definitely see it as a race between tutanota and protonmail. Which one gives us text search first!

Can't search for particular text in body messages. Essential missing.

Please speed up the search. It`s really slow to get search results.

I won't use them until they add this feature. I think ProtonMail knows that it is important to most, so I don't think it is a lack of motivation or ignorance. The question here is how to do it. You need to implement client-side indexing. And I guess through JavaScript... And then I guess encrypt the indexes and store them on the server. Then how do you prevent the need for the client to download all the indexes to do a search? Maybe you encrypt the individual index keys which point to encrypted email references...
But again, I can't use this as my primary email until this feature is realized. For now I will look to host my own email.

Protonmail, Don't you realise that all the leading general email services have the Search Email Text feature, with Google winning the war on having one of the preferable email account services - regardless of it's security encryption features?
You will be in a position of strength, the sooner you get your Search Email Text up and running.
Thank You! -

I hope this will be implemented in a secure manner with client-side indexing. The index can be either stored in local HTML5 database or stored in encrypted blocks server-side.

When approximately this feature will be implemented?

When will we be able to search for words and phrases in the body of the e-mails? As it is now the search engine is pretty useless and picky.
Combined with the fact that we do not have the ability to intelligently sort into folders or labels (through filters) most of the e-mail is simply lost and impossible to track down once you forget the senders address. -

The only reason I had to drop proton mail as my main email address provider, was the lack of this function. I am just waiting for them to find a way to search by text, and I will go back to proton. Any idea when proton will be able to develop this?

I have already suggested some time ago this functionality, because searching only the object is frequently not enough.
