Hello, in fact, I'm not that much convinced by full-text search index
server side.
We consider response time, server side full text search will include
client-server round-trip.
So that, for example, on etpanX, I do some local indexing on the imap
folders, so that when the user does a search, it's given in a fraction
of second even if the server is slow.
I think Mail.app on Mac OS X is doing the same.
