Default Are user-defined fields indexed for Advanced Search?

If not automatically indexed then for Advanced Find, is there a way to
create an index?

The reason is we are trying to find an email, normally using GetItemFromID
but if it has been moved to another folder we'd then have to regress to the
slower Advanced Find method.

I can't see any other way to find an email since using the Find method isn't
multi-threaded and locks up the GUI.

For Instant Search or ? Not automatically for either.

For Advanced Find you'd add the fields using the Advanced tab to add user
defined fields in the folder (the user properties must be added as folder
properties and not just in the items).

For Instant Search you'd use the add criteria setting to add the form the
user properties are from, which makes them available for Instant Search.
The properties must be from custom, published forms in that case.
