Restarting indexing?

[Philip Warner]

Hi,

I have about 80GB of mail to index using Dovecot 2.3.4.1 and xapian 1.4.11 FTS. After about 18 hours I had to reboot the server for an unrelated reason (it was perhaps a quarter of the way through indexing).

After reboot, the indexing did not restart, and I could find no way to restart it other than via the ‘doveadm index’ command, which I have now done, with the result that the indexing has restarted from scratch.

Is there a way to coax it to restart from where it left off, in case I need another reboot?
