Try it and see. A subject of a message does not have to match the
string entered into the subject field exactly. e.g. enter '123' and
any message with '123' somewhere in the subject will be matched.

Have a look at Quick Search instead, it's much more
powerful. '/Edit/Quiuck search' or click the button with the
magnifying glass between the msg list and msg.
