I'm trying to filter some messages by searching for example with this value : id="1122" Note quotes must be included

Here my email :

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<adf>
  <prospect status="new">
    <requestdate>2016-10-17T12:22:51.8840989-04:00</requestdate>
    <vendor id="1122">
      <vendorname>TEST VENDOR</vendorname>
    </vendor>

The search return 0 email, however if only limit the search to 1122
the email is found.

What must i do to include the quotes in search ??

To include quotes, just include them in the input string. Like this:

C#:

imap.Search(ImapSearchParameter.Subject("ID=\"1122\""))

VB.NET:

imap.Search(ImapSearchParameter.Subject("ID=""1122"""))

However, please note that it depends on the IMAP server how it will interpret the parameter.

For example Gmail searches only for whole words in subject. E.g. Gmail matches "VENDOR" but not "VEND".

You can create VERBOSE log of the communication to see, what requests are sent to server and what responses are received.
Follow http://www.rebex.net/kb/logging/default.aspx and specify LogLevel.Verbose
