This function performs a search on the mailbox currently opened
in the given <acronym>IMAP</acronym> stream.
</para>
<para>
For example, to match all unanswered messages sent by Mom, you'd
use: "UNANSWERED FROM mom". Searches appear to be case
insensitive. This list of criteria is from a reading of the UW
c-client source code and may be incomplete or
inaccurate (see also <link xlink:href="&url.rfc;2060">RFC2060</link>,
section 6.4.4).
