Hello all,

I often use G G to search a group.  With most imap servers,
e.g. Google's gmail, this works really well.  However, with Microsoft's
outlook.office365.com exchange server accessed as an imap server, it
takes a very long time (minutes) to satisfy the search
request.  Annoyingly, if I use the web interface for this server,
searches are fast.  It's only through imap that they are slow, it would
seem.

Does anybody have any suggestions on how to search a very slow server?
I would be happy with a search limited to author and subject line if
need be, if it were fast.

Thank you,
eric
