Hello,

Can you run imapfilter with the -v option so we can see what was the
error message when the search query was sent to the mail server?

I suspect that it might be a character set issue with the search
queries...

Also, by "fails" you mean that it doesn't match any messages, right?

The match command downloads the Subject header of all messages and
matches locally using regular expressions.  You shouldn't need this, if
you are just searching for a simple string.
