    // Search for already-answered emails.
    const wchar_t *answered = L"ANSWERED";

    // Search for messages on a specific date.

    // Using OR.  The syntax is OR <criteria1> <criteria2>. 
    // The "OR" comes first, followed by each criteria.
    // For example, to match all emails with "Help" or "Question" in the subject.
