Hi,
I'm testing FTS flatcurve plugin in order to understand if I can switch from FTS Solr to flatcurve.
 
 In my configuration I have enabled Virtual mailboxes and for search in all folders I just SEARCH on Virtual/All folder. I this (virtual) folder is not indexed with FTS Solr Dovecot start to index it (or all real folders).
 
 But with FTS flatcurve when I SEARCH on Virtual/All for the first time the indexer process does not start and the search return empty. Only if I run manually "doveadm index -q -u alessio@email.net '*'" flatcurve find messages.
 
 Can flatcurve have the same feature as Solr for Virtual mailboxes?
Here a sample of my configuration:
namespace Virtual {
 hidden = yes
 list = no
 location = virtual:/etc/dovecot/virtual:INDEX=~/Maildir/virtual
 prefix = Virtual/
 separator = /
 subscriptions = no
 }
 
 namespace inbox {
 [...]
 mailbox virtual/All {
 comment = All my messages
 special_use = \All
 }
 }
 
 # cat /etc/dovecot/virtual/All/dovecot-virtual 
 *
 all
 

Thanks

Hi!

plugin {
  fts_autoindex = yes
  fts_enforced = yes
}

probably fixes your issue.

Hi,

probably I have found where is the issue.

My Dovecot is configured with fts=solr and my mailbox is already indexed with Solr. For testing Flatcurve I just change dovecot config from fts=solr to fts=flatcurve and run "doveadm fts rescan -u EMAIL".

Now, after "fts rescan" on my account if I SEARCH on a standard mailbox folder, flatcurve index is updated, if I SEARCH on Virtual/All flatcurve index is not updated.

If I test SEARCH, with flatcurve, on a newly created mailbox account, never indexed with Solr (or if I delete all dovecot.* file on my mailbox account previously index with Solr) also a SEARCH on Virtual/All updating flatcurve index.

So my question is, there is a specific command for switch from an FTS plugin to another or there is a bug in this procedure?

Thanks
