That query should search ALL emails that dovecot has indexed to Solr.  
There is no restriction for mailbox or folder.

Try replacing "maynez" with something else that you know will be in the 
index.

Note that you can ask dovecot to completely reindex everybody's email 
with this command run as root, and then you can try searching again a 
few minutes later:

doveadm index -A -q '*'

It took me forever to work out the right options for that command.  I 
think it should probably get added to the wiki page about fts_solr.

Question for experts on the dovecot side of this:  What does it take for 
dovecot to index new messages delivered with dovecot's LDA by postfix?  
Is it a matter of waiting a certain amount of time?  I saw in Solr that 
the last update to the index was 3 hours earlier, but I had received 
email only a few minutes before looking at Solr's stats.

Thanks,
