Recently, our mail system had a serious failure and some mails were lost. However, our admin gave us the sender's address together with a Message-Id to contact him for retransmission. So I got also some of these requests. When entering the msgid in Thunderbirds search field I am not able to find it. Using grep inside of the .thunderbird folder, gave me multiple hits, so I could figure out which mail account was in action and I finally found the mail by manually inspecting all headers of the very recent mails sent from that account. Is there any better way?

A Thunderbird-native way of doing this is answered on https://superuser.com/a/461509/283161.
Additionally, there is a Thunderbird extension called MessageID-Finder.
