Hidden virtual folder search Was: Support for MULTISEARCH

Well, the thread turned completely, still old subject

I have now created a virtual folder that /contains/ so to say, all the 
messages, where I want to get results from.

The folder is hidden, unlisted and cannot be subscribed too. There are 
just too many messages in there.

How can I get Thunderbird or maybe roundcube to use it for searching?

Would be very nice to learn that

Thank you in advance

Peter
