Sorry if I was unclear. The angle brackets have to be *removed* and
not URL encoded in order for the search to work. The brackets in the
Message above indicate that they weren't.

This is a bit baffling, since the current code should produce exactly
the same request when referring the id, and mm-url-use-external and
mm-url-program are bound to the same values. I'd be desperate enough
by now to use tcpdump to see what is actually going through the ether.
