Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: beagle

The KMail backend in beagle is nice, but could be better. Here are two
use cases:

1. I have a lot of archived emails in Maildir folders somewhere in my
home directory. The KMail backend looks in 3-4 specific locations for
Maildir folders. Given that all the infrastructure is already there, I'd
like to have the ability to index Maildir folders that live outside of
KMail's directory structure

2. I often run an IMAP server on my local machine to ease access in a
consistent manner across mail clients (for instance, Thunderbird doesn't
have Maildir support). Most IMAP servers (I've tried dovecot and
bincimap) that support Maildir stick the mails in ~/Maildir. I don't see
how this is any different than indexing mails under ~/Mail (for KMail).
Currently beagle just indexes these mails as regular text files.
