Escaping quotes for imap_search

Hi, I'm having a problem with the imap_search function when the search text contains double quotes (and possibly some other special characters). Escaping these characters with addslashes doesn't do the trick. Here's what I'm trying to do: $header = imap_fetchheader($source_stream, $msglist[$i], FT_UID); ... $body = imap_body($source_stream, $msglist[$i], FT_UID); ... $message = $header . $body; imap_append($dest_stream, "{ipz1.imagepower.com:143}INBOX", "$message"); ... $temp_num = imap_search($dest_stream, "BODY \"$body\"", SE_UID); After this, $temp_num[0] has the number of the message in the new mailbox it has been copied to. But when the message contains double quotes, this value is not set. I've also tried setting the criteria string as follows, to no avail: 'BODY "' . addslashes($body) . '"' Can anyone help me here? Replies to my email address in addition to the list/ng would be appreciated. Thanks, Chris Campbell
