Find MailItem by ConversationIndex? Redemption?

Question

Hello,

I am wondering if there is a way to search and find a MailItem object by it's ConversationIndex.  I know there is a DASL searchable field "urn: schemas:mailheader:thread-index", but it appears to be in binary so unless there is a way to convert the Conversation Index into the same binary value, it doesn't appear that would work.  Not sure if this is possible or not -- could someone please give some input? Thanks!

Sure, Redemption will let you search on a binary property:

RDOItems.Find(" ""http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/0x00710102"" = 'some hex value' ") should do the trick.
