 When filtering on the search results page, it would be most helpful to be able to filter messages Only involving a certain contact. At the moment, is is very hard if you want to find a message from a certain contact, who is also part of frequent group emails involving a few contacts. When you select the current option "Must involve CONTACT" it doesn't really reduce the results.

+Let's say that I want to keep received and sent mails in different folders (Inbox and Sent, respectively), but I want to have a Saved Search with all the mails sent to or received from an specific person. Currently I can only create one Saved Search which takes data from Inbox and Sent, and apply to them the same rules (in this case, "Sent to that person", and "Received from that person". Unfortunately, in some cases this filters some messages that I don't want (mainly when there are mailing lists involved). It would be desirable to be able to set a different set of rules for each input folder, this is: only "Sent to that person" in "Sent folder", and only "Received from that person" in "Inbox folder", but putting all that messages in the same virtual folder for that Saved Search.
