Before doing that, here is what I have now: in Mail, search does not work, 
physical boxes display contents but not of the smart boxes do (VIP does not 
work, Flagged does not work etc.) *but* I can search for Mail contents in 
Spotlight.

After the full account restore I did yesterday the OS did a full reindexing of 
the disk and I guess that's the reason why it works.

So, the problem is related exclusively to Mail.

Do you think reindexing the entire drive again would fix help ?
