api to access cyrus header/index files

[Ramprasad A Padmanabhan]

I am using cyrus mailboxes to store rss feeds users have subscribed
to.   Now I am putting special headers in the mails for every feed which
are specific to my application.

 I want to do an optimum search on all mailboxes somewhat like
"select all mails from all mailboxes where header Xmyheader is myvalue"

Is there a way I can do such a search without crashing my (already
loaded) imap server.
I was thinking if there was a way to directly access the cyrus.header
files from all mailboxes that can give me this result. Presently I am
using Mail::IMAPClient perl module to talk imap to the server

Thanks
Ram
