No, that was something I already verified.

I'm running mairix 0.22_10_g4a8ed72 on Fedora 14. I have a large
collection (some 800) of mailboxes and update the database every night.
Most mailboxes have rather fixed content, just a few (e.g. my daily
mailbox) have varying content. Occasionally I recreate the database
completely.

Search results are delivered as a VM mailbox (mbox).

An example search using a freshly created database:

% mairix -x f:simonstl | grep '^  From:'
  From:        "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
  From:        "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
  From:        "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
  From:        "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
  From:        "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
  From:        "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
  From:        "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
  From:        "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
  From:        "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
  From:        "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>

However:

% grep '^From:' Mail/mairixsearch.mbox
From: "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
From: "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
From: "KARIN VAN DEN BOGAARD" <kpointer@....>
From: "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
From: "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
From: "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
From: "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
From: "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
From: "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
From: "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
From: "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....>
From: "reintlesschen" <reintlesschen@....>
From: Bart Pauwels <bps1572@....>

Inspecting the last entry, as returned by mairix:

mbox:/home/jv/Mail/INBOX.Current [6811136,6828954)
  To:          Johan Vromans <jvromans@....
  From:        "Simon St.Laurent" <simonstl@....
  Subject:     Re: Perl Pocket Ref coming together
  Message-ID:  <20102202.19718.1302894906637@....
  Date:        Thu, 14 Apr 2011

The start position points to the start of message N in this mailbox (the
right message). However, the end position does not points to the end of
message N, but to the end of message N+2.

I also noticed:

% mairix -x f:reintlesschen
---------------------------------
mbox:/home/jv/Mail/INBOX.Current [6842390,6847035)
  To:          <jvromans@....>
  From:        "reintlesschen" <reintlesschen@....>
  Subject:     RE: HowsaGoin!
  Message-ID:  <000a01cbfcdb$eace5820$c06b0860$@....>
  Date:        Sat, 16 Apr 2011

But there are two matching messages in one of the mailboxes:

% grep '^From:.*reintlesschen' /home/jv/Mail/INBOX.Current
From: "reintlesschen" <reintlesschen@....>
From: "reintlesschen" <reintlesschen@....>

Any suggestions how to nail this down?
