Comment 1 Tom Chiverton 2016-09-06 18:38:46 UTC 
After running balooctl stop I removed .local/share/baloo/emai* and rebooted.

Baloo appears hung :

$ balooctl status
Baloo File Indexer is running
Indexer state: Indexing file content
Indexed 15615 / 117946 files
Current size of index is 76.73 MiB

how do I find out what it is actually doing ?

Toggleing search off and on via system settings then rechecking just returns it to the same position.

same system + version, same issue :-(
Comment 3 Jens 2017-04-10 05:27:58 UTC 
Same Issue with Kmail 5.2.3
Comment 4 Clemens 2017-04-15 18:43:59 UTC 
Same issue on Kubuntu 17.04 using Kmail 5.2.3
 
This is bug is a deal breaker for me. It's the only reason I use Thunderbird.

KDEPIM version -> KDE Applications releases mapping:

5.5.x -> 17.04.x
5.4.x -> 16.12.x
5.3.x -> 16.08.x
5.2.x -> 16.04.x
5.1.x -> 15.12.x

(completely independend of Plasma or KF5 frameworks releases)
