I've recently switched to namazu for nnir because it seems to have better support for searching on specific mail headers, and because it indexes so much faster than swish-e (and with much less load while doing it). But, for mail searching, if you are using maildir, check out mairix. I haven't looked at integrating it into emacs yet, but it builds a maildir folder containing links to the matching messages, which you can then browse in Gnus. I can't believe how fast it searches -- it's unreal. I use mairix to search my maildir groups and namazu on the nnml groups. But I plan on shifting everything over to maildir (nnimap actually). -- -John Sullivan1 -http://www.wjsullivan.net -GPG Key: AE8600B6 _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
