This is a warning, because kerio.com doesn't do it. I'm writing
this here on my blog because 1) I've noticed my blog entries are 
appearing pretty highly on Google, 2) Perhaps I can nudge the 
Kerio development team to implement this needed feature, and 
3) to warn future Kerio administrators of this deficiency.
	IMAP search allows filtering to be done on the server 
side, as opposed to requiring the entire message to come to the
client first for the purpose of filing messages in appropriate
folders. I'll be writing a server-side client program to do my
filtering, but it would be way more efficient for Kerio to provide
the search capabilities. Many people have asked for it, RFC 3501
specifies it, but Kerio doesn't say anything about this deficiency.
Too bad, because otherwise Kerio seems to be a great mail server.
