"Unmatched" is every email in the folders you're searching that doesn't
fit the criteria for whatever other search folders you have set up.  If
you haven't set up any other search folders, then "Unmatched" is every
email from whatever folders you specify.

For example:
search folder: "Mail sent from A"
search folder: "Mail sent from B"
search folder: "Mail with subject C"

In that case, "Unmatched" will be all mail not sent from A or B and not
with subject C.

Think of "Unmatched" as everything that's left over from your other
searches.

Unfortunately, "Unmatched" doesn't work in Evo 2.26.1.  Sigh.
