For those who would like to try: - Here is the command you need to make nnimap feed the server http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501#section-6.4.4 - The response is a list of sequence numbers, http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501#section-2.3.1.2 which will possibly need to be transformed into UIDs http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501#section-2.3.1.1 for nnimap to make use of it...?

In my case N == 2, and the largest number of articles are in group number 2, while group number 1 is the logical group, with the expected group parameters and gnus-posting-styles. The reason for this pattern is that once upon a time, nnimap had speed problems with a large number of \Seen articles, interspersed with the odd ticked articles. If I could move most of the articles to an archive group I could access them if I absolutely _had_ to, and have much improved speed for the newest and most relevant articles. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 23+ messages in thread

I'm happy to report that IMAP search now seem to work for me, even across groups. Great! I have, however, done a simple modification to the actual search function (nnir-run-imap). I like to express my search criteria in IMAP syntax directly as IMAP itself supports a query language of sorts. I am not sure I see the need to invent another, more limited, mini-query-language implemented in elisp, at least not until it can be supported with a nice GUI for building complex queries. The native IMAP search method allows both simple and complex queries, like. "from lars" "from lars since 20-Sep-2010" "from lars since 20-Sep-2010 subject imap" "(or from lars from vegard) since 20-Sep-2010 subject imap" "(not (or from lars from vegard)) since 20-Sep-2010 subject imap" "subject imap body query" >> - Make it possible to warp from the match and into the nnimap group it >> is in, so that a found article can be ticked, and so that group >> parameters and gnus-posting-styles match the group > > Hm...

Could you post the patch Lars> here? And have you (or are you willing to) sign copyright Lars> assignment papers for the code to the FSF (if the code is Lars> long-ish)? I thought this sounded useful as well, so here is a very simple implementation. If you use "G G" in the group buffer with a prefix arg you get queried for the search string, and then queried for the field to search in (e.g. Subject, From, Header). I've changed this so that if you enter nothing for the field it interprets the search as a raw imap search. If you want raw imap searches to be the default for all queries (even without using a prefix arg) just set nnir-imap-search-field to "".
