[MlMt] Searching on attachment filenames

Is anyone else able to get reliable search results on attachment 
filenames in MailMate?

I have an IMAP folder that contains some messages with an attached file 
called “Attachment.ics” (standard Zoom calendar invite).

If I just search for “A ics”, I only see messages from year 2020 and 
earlier. I verified that I have messages from year 2022 with an 
“Attachment.ics” attached file.

I tried rebuilding my entire message database, but I still get the same 
results. Is this maybe a problem with searching on filename extensions 
versus the main filename?

Using Edit > Find > Mailbox Search… was even worse. I enabled 
“Attachment-Name” as a search option, but I get zero messages no 
matter what I search for.

NB: I already sent a separate email about this using the Send 
Feedback… option, but I wanted to check with others, too.
