Hello,

I struggle with searching the From field of mails, that have square brackets
in it. The first instance of that problem I found is

  From: =?UTF-8?Q?Shedhalle_T=c3=bcbingen_[Festival]?= <festival@shedhalle.de>

In this case, on 0.27 I'm unable to find any mail with

  from:"Shedhalle"
  from:"Tübingen"
  from:"Festival"

However I can find mails with 

  From: "dependabot[bot]" <notifications@github.com>

by searching for

  from:"dependabot"
  from:"bot"

I managed to write a short test, that reproduces the problem. It fails on
master, but should pass imho. It is attached below this mail. For me it
generates the following output:


  $ ./T080-search.sh

I could imagine, that the problem occurs not just with square brackets, but
with other special characters as well, but I didn't test for it. Unfortunately,
I have no knowledge of C and notmuch development. If anybody can give me a hint
or a general direction how to fix this, I'd be glad and could try it for myself.

I hope that I formatted this email correctly, never send a git commit via mail before…

Best,
Justin
