Thunderbird: Search term entered is auto-corrected, gives too many (wrong) results

Trying to find email messages from Lowe's Home Improvement (lowes.com), entered "lowes" (with or without quotes) in the search field, which returned 1200+ emails containing the word "low" (without the quotes). There doesn't seem to be a way to force search to use the precise spelling, and not incorrectly auto-correct my entry.

Am I missing something?

Using the Quick Filter Toolbar was an improvement, but I still get results (92 of them) that aren't properly filtered. Specifically, when I enter lowes (with a space following the s) I get all instances of lowest. Putting a space at the end of the search term should limit the results to instances where the word is, or ends with, "lowes", as the space should indicate the end of that word in the search term.

I'd understand if the search tools still need some refinement, but if Thunderbird search is actually designed to ignore or modify specific search terms in this matter, then we have a problem...
