I'd second that.  And the key Imap is strange anyhow...

Nope, imap searching is a pure server-side business.

Oh, I have another feature request.  I really like the plain-IMAP search
command feature, but it's not very easy to remember the correct format,
and the search commands are a littlebit long to type over and over.  So
it would be really, really cool if I could specify some commom search
strings with placeholders for things I'd like to type in (format strings
would be the way to go, IMO).

Then I could have a set frequently occuring searches, like "mails from
%u within the last %n weeks"...

Bye,
Tassilo
