Does Mckoi understand escaped underscores in a LIKE
statement? For example, 

  SELECT * FROM EMAILS_TABLE WHERE EMAIL LIKE '%\_%'

  ... so that it returns all email addresses
containing underscores.

I tried the backslash but it doesn't seem to work. I
also tried a varied number of backslashes (2, 4, etc),
to allow for Java backslash escaping, regular
expressions, etc., to no avail.

If true, is there a workaround? I can use prepared
statements, but still need to write the right SQL.
Thanks in advance
