You can use wildcard * as part of your search critera.  However, be prepared for some interesting search results.  For example consider the following example.  I know the users name has the letter "j" in it, but I don't remember how it's spelled.  I enter the following in the address match dialog box "j*".

It has return everyone who has the letter "j" in their email address. Where you place the wildcard will also make a big difference as well. You can place it on either side of the "@" of an email address.  If you place the wildcard symbol on the left side of the email address it will return all emails that match on the username portion of the email.  If you place the wildcard symbol on the right side of the email address it will return all emails that match on the domain name portion of the email address.  Now through in the policy and scope variables and you will be able to create some very powerful and interesting custom searches.
