Title:
  thunderbird email search should begin with the most recent email then
  progress to the oldest (what the user is searching for is more likely
  to be in recent rather than older emails)

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
  Confirmed
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This becomes more problematic the more email a user has to search.
  With a large account, this can result in very long search times, which
  users are more likely to understand if the email is old. If it is a
  recent email, users expect to see the search result more quickly.
