Hello,

Google finds this:
|http://www.gohome.org/wl/doc/wl_35.html
|V   Move to the virtual folder with the condition specified. If called
|    with prefix argument and current folder is virtual, exit
|    it. (wl-summary-virtual)

Not sure how this is a form of searching.

Just running grep from inside Emacs/WL on all the msg bodies ought not
to be utterly impossible.

I can't believe nobody thought of that before.
