So what does happen with the index if it is deleted or become corrupt
and must be thrown away? Does it only partially index the DB? What if it
is deleted, doesn't that mean PM builds something at start of the app?
As far as I can recall, this is the impression the dialog gives after an
index deletion, i e that the search index is being rebuilt (sorry if
this not correct, I don't want to move it just to check).

outdated? Doesn't the clone include the PM DB? Why separately?

Yes, if I understand you correctly you can just move the PowerMail Files
folder and, if it's in a new path, you can point PM to it. This is done
by holding down Cmd, I think, during upstart or change environment from
the Archivemenu.
