With Squat, yes. With Solr everything is in the same index.

I think with a virtual mailbox containing "all mailboxes" Squat also
creates a single index for it. Solr is also optimized for virtual
mailboxes, it won't even duplicate indexes for them.
I'm not very happy with Squat in general. The index updating speed is
way too slow. Needs a redesign some day.. Nowadays Cyrus can also do
incremental Squat indexing, I guess I should see how they're doing
it. :)
