Hi Philon,
Thanks a lot for your thoughts!
Can I ask you if using Solr improved things for you? I have a mailbox
with 15 years of e-mail and searching things take a long time.
Here, SOLR itself searches a quarter million mails in split seconds and
returns very good results. That is on a low memory average machine.
Looking at the facts, it is closer to half a million mails in a 160GB
Maildir, lots of trash too, but no one to sort it out. SOLR index is 1.2
GB in size on disk. A tremendous ratio IMO.
In dovecot terms this is likely considered a small installation. We are
a small team too :) and quite happy with the generous gift of dovecot,
and Thunderbird BTW.
Only problem is search through e.g. nested folders from IMAP: something
like ESEARCH would be nice - https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6237
PS: There is powerful client side search in some MUAs, yet sometimes
serverside comes handy.
