public IAsyncResult BeginSearch(
	ImapMessageSet messageSet,
	ImapListFields fields,
	ImapSearchParameter[] parameters,
	AsyncCallback callback,
	Object state
)

Parameters

messageSet
Type: Rebex.Net..::..ImapMessageSet
A set of messages to be searched.
fields
Type: Rebex.Net..::..ImapListFields
Specifies the scope of information to determine about each message.
parameters
Type: array<Rebex.Net..::..ImapSearchParameter>[]()[][]
Searching criteria.
callback
Type: System..::..AsyncCallback
An optional asynchronous callback to be called when the operation is complete.
