These things are all search-engine dependent. Notmuch will turn
"mark:flag" into "tag:flag", and IMAP will turn it into "FLAGGED".
What search engine are you using in this case? The first thing to try
is always shutting off search parsing (either fully, by setting
`gnus-search-use-parsed-queries' to nil, or temporarily, using the
prefix argument). Then get the search working using the search engine's
native syntax. Then come back here and tell me how it went :)
