Yes, but there should be no need for you to have to do this. If your
app has to ask Spotlight to find a Mail message, then that seems a
bad thing. Spotlight could be disabled on that volume/folder and the
option would be gone.
We need a way of asking Mail itself.

What happens if you invoke Spotlight to search for a message-ID?
Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this will work:
budney@iBook budney-$ mdfind "kMDItemIdentifier == ED98E837-
email@hidden"
budney@iBook budney-$
The above should find one of my posts in this thread, but it
returns nothing. The results are the same whether I use mdfind,
spotlight, or Mail's search. I'd have thought that spotlight
indexed the full text of the raw message source, but it looks like
I'd be wrong: it appears to index only the body and selected headers.
Is there a way to get spotlight to index message-id headers? The
same document that gave me the key kMDItemIdentifier specifically
gave message-ids as an example...
the mail importer doesn't write out this information about a
message, please file a bug requesting that it do this.
Once the mail importer does this, the above query will work.
