Hi, I wonder if anyone has done some research on this subject. Apple
users are complaining loudly [1] about being not able to search the
inbox since Apple did not change the brain-dead
full-body-search-behaviour in iOS 7.1.
There don't seem to be any notable changes in iOS 7.1. iOS Mail still
opens lots of simultaneous IMAP connections, eventually complains about
not being able to contact the server, and doesn't seem to do anything
that uses Dovecot's search indexes.
I posted about this a few days ago:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.mail.imap.dovecot/76613
but did not hear from anyone else who has had success getting Dovecot
searches from iOS 7 to be performant. This was disappointing as I spent
quite a bit of time getting Lucene FTS set up, because Timo had
mentioned a few months ago that it should help.
I don't do this for a living — I'm just maintaining a Dovecot server
with a couple of users, but I do happen to have an iPhone and iPad with
iOS 7 and like to search my email from time to time.
This is concerning to me, so I've CC'd Mike Abbot from Apple
(participates on this list from time to time and helps Timo fix things).
Most of our users have held off on the iOS7 update, but some haven't,
and it won't be too long I imagine before most have updated (either via
getting new devices, or just taking the plunge).
Mike?
