I can easily create url for searching the Internet for specific term:

http://www.bing.com/search?q=example

Is is possible to create a similar url for searching my Exchange server mailbox using Outlook Web App? Something like:

http://my.exchange.server.tld/owa/search.aspx?q=example

EDIT

Some of comments asked for target, so here is the clarification:

There is a web-based backoffice system which includes customer's email addresses. I want to provide an easy way to show emails related to this customer in a support mailbox. Adding a link to an OWA search result page seemed a way to accomplish quickly. I can lookup emails either via EWS or IMAP. I wanted to reuse OWA for displaying them instead of reinventing the wheel.

If creating a search link is not possible what would be best alternative approach? I'm thinking about getting message list via EWS/IMAP, showing them and (at least now) redirecting to OWA in order to display the message content.
