I requested a fix to raise the search character set to
the same case thinking that was the problem in 1.2.5,
but when I got the new official 1.2.6 release it still
appears to have some sort of problem. Not sure if its
related to using quotes or if its a limitation of the
UW server. The characterset is clearly in the list of
available ones.
Version Information:
UW IMAP4rev1 v12.264.
Server version: Apache/1.3.24 (Unix) Debian GNU/Linux
Server built: Apr 15 2002 16:13:19

Strange. Using UW on Debian unstable I dont get these
errors. Lots of people do have problems with charsets
however, so recently an option was added to CVS to use a
SEARCH function without a charset. Perhaps that will fix
this problem for you. Its the last option on menu 4 of conf.pl.

Probelm is not related to quotes. The problem is in the
imap_search.php/sqimap_search function. The first time SM
tries to do a search command with the charset assigned to
the current language. If that fails it should try with US-
ASCII. However, the first sqimap_run_command never returns
because the $handle_errors=true, this should be false,
so:
/* Read Data Back From IMAP */
$readin = sqimap_run_command ($imapConnection, $ss,
true, $result, $message);
Should be:
/* Read Data Back From IMAP */
$readin = sqimap_run_command ($imapConnection, $ss,
false, $result, $message);

The requested change to imap_search is correct and commited
to CVS. Tested by setting my charset to ISO-BLAH, then the
search is retried with US-ASCII. This does not tell us why
UW on your Debian system does not allow you to search with a
supported charset (it works on my debian setup). Between
this fix and the ability to chose a search without charset
this bug report is being closed.
