Yes, it can be done with thunderbird. You just highlight the folder you want to have sorted/filtered. Then you right click the folder and select "search messages". You search for something in the body and then you click save "save as search folder". This, of course, is a "virtual folder" but it does work quite well...at least for me.
When I do that, there is no means of sorting by the Body, just all the assorted parts of the message header. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L.
