That's an issue with or without client-side encryption. Even with IMAP, you have to download the message before its contents can be searched. While subject/sender/recipient can be searched instantly with IMAP, regardless of encryption.

This is a limitation of your client or server. Not IMAP.

No, it's a limitation by IMAP that is rectified by the server/client.

IMAP's SEARCH TEXT command is at least 35 years old.[1]
