The default behavior of searching sender and subject really makes sense. Doing a full message search on a large inbox can be very inefficient, and is often unnecessary. Also, this is the default behavior in Thunderbird (I don't know about other apps). Some advanced search window would be nice, as would some kind of drop down menu to change the search type instead of the user having to know the keywords, but keep the default search as is.
You are totaly right on not searching the bodies by default. It would be a real waste of resources. My bad. :-(
