Summary:
When I search for “the contact email address for your Apple ID” (without quotes), Mail crashes.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Mail.
2. Begin typing “the contact email address for your Apple ID” into the Search field.

Expected Results:
Mail searches my messages for “the contact email address for your Apple ID”.

Actual Results:
Somewhere around when I’m typing “your Apple,” mail Crashes. This also happens when I paste the string into the search field.

Regression:
Unknown

Notes:
Most searches don’t crash Mail - just this one. I’ve reproduced this on two machines. The one in the screen recording has three Gmail accounts and one iCloud account. Also reproduced it on a machine with two of the gmail accounts from the other machine, and no others.

Attached screen recording also uploaded to http://cl.ly/gdVr
