Comment:

 Searching by email address indeed requires using the "contact:" prefix.
 Non-prefixed search terms only work for a few fields like fingerprint,
 nickname, and IP address. As you already guessed, this is something we
 cannot change easily.

 The error message is indeed wrong. I already wrote a patch for that that
 is currently under review in #32683.

 Resolving as duplicate. Thanks for reporting anyway!
