Searching two string at a time in the Object of emails

[rlebeau]

Can i search both strings at a time?

When you specify multiple criteria to the IMAP SEARCH command, it returns the intersection (AND) of all matching criteria. Per RFC 3501 Section 6.4.4:

When multiple keys are specified, the result is the intersection (AND function) of all the messages that match those keys. For example, the criteria DELETED FROM "SMITH" SINCE 1-Feb-1994 refers to all deleted messages from Smith that were placed in the mailbox since February 1, 1994. A search key can also be a parenthesized list of one or more search keys (e.g., for use with the OR and NOT keys).

So, in your example, you are searching for emails that:

• are marked as Unseen
  
• AND whose subject contains 'ACC: '
  
• AND whose subject contains 'CON: '
  

Which I suspect is probably not what you want. You probably want something more like this instead:

• are marked as Unseen
  
• AND whose subject contains EITHER 'ACC: ' OR 'CON: '
  

The SEARCH command has an OR <search-key1> <search-key2> search-key for that very purpose, so try this:

Code:

SetLength(SearchInfoArray, 4);
SearchInfo.Date := 0;
SearchInfo.Size := 0;
SearchInfo.Text := '';

SearchInfo.SearchKey := skUnseen;
SearchInfoArray[0] := SearchInfo;

SearchInfo.SearchKey := skOr;
SearchInfoArray[1] := SearchInfo;

SearchInfo.SearchKey := skSubject;
SearchInfo.Text := 'ACC: ';
SearchInfoArray[2] := SearchInfo;

SearchInfo.SearchKey := skSubject;
SearchInfo.Text := 'CON: ';
SearchInfoArray[3] := SearchInfo;

if IMAP.SearchMailBox(SearchInfoArray) then
