I would be interested in that script, too - are you working on it?

It appears that you can run IMAP commands by piping them into the imap process - look at some of Timo's previous posts for examples. I should think it's a one line to type in the IMAP search command and have it execute? (implementation left as an exercise for the reader...)

To do it remotely, perl/ruby and most common scripting languages have an IMAP module which should work well (need to embed a password obviously)
