Dear Brandon,

   Thank you for your complete explanation. Although there is no substring 
search, I guess "%" is not a string on its own in the Gmail server, which 
would have actually resulted in no messages selected in the search in my 
case, instead of all of them.

   Thank you! I appreciate your explanation.
