Let's say someone calls me, and I don't recognize the number. When I want to search my address book for numbers, I have to do an advanced search and put three criteria: home phone = xxx OR mobile = xxx OR work phone = xxx. I would rather be able to quick search by phone number, but this isn't an option.

Is there any easier way to search by phone number?

You hit on something that I've wanted too!

So I went through add-ons available for Thunderbird and found a great one that can do this. It is called Contact Tabs.

Follow these instructions for how to search for and Installing an Add-on in Thunderbird

See my screenshot for how to change what to look for.

Thanks, that's pretty useful. I wish there was a way to add it to the Address book window. It only seems to be available for the main mail window.

In any case, it is a solution. So thank you.
