When using the global search function, search results are not highlighted in the messages found containing the search parameters. Looking for a single word in a twenty-page file is a disaster. How would one configure global search to highlight the word or phrase when it is found?

I found that starting TB in safe mode, the HIGHLIGHT feature in GLOBAL search works. No doubt an add-on is responsible for this issue.

Thanks to Mozilla support for being here.... Mike H
