One search mechanism is doveadm search:

[slitt@mydesk flex]$ doveadm search mailbox dng from terryc
Error: net_connect_unix(/var/run/dovecot/stats-writer) failed:
Permission denied
c8c8a4141115e2541f350000b22befbd 32577
c8c8a4141115e2541f350000b22befbd 32580
c8c8a4141115e2541f350000b22befbd 32584
c8c8a4141115e2541f350000b22befbd 32585
[slitt@mydesk flex]$

So it found four emails from terryc in the dng mailbox.

I'm sure there's a way to have it pull up headers and bodies, but I
haven't found that yet. In practice I do searches using my email client
search facility on my Dovecot IMAP server.
