Thanks a lot for your reply. I also found a second bug report related to this: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=21168
Now, how about adding an imap_newsearchpgm function to the PHP imap extension which would do a call to mail_nsewsearchpgm inside c-client and return a structure allowing to contruct IMAP4 search programs (SEARCHPGM inside c-client) ? Anyone interested in this ?
