Indexing Mail faster

[Kevin Laurie]

Hey Joseph
Thanks. Strace seems like a very useful tool
Only problem is that I dont think it is maintained on ubuntu.
Tried to run:-
apt-get install strace but could not download it.
Might need to download and build it. Do you know any other way of getting
it?
Thanks
Kevin A.
