"You could also build a cronjob to index users' mailboxes once in a while (by selecting each mailbox and issuing a SEARCH TEXT xyzzyx command)."

Has anyone written a script to perform the above? If not, how would I do this? Would I write a shell script to telnet to the IMAP port and then issue the commands? Can this be done with a bash script? Or would I need something more serious like a perl script?

See the recent thread, "fts squat -> webmail ..."
