If I select Tools->FInd Messages and use any of the options (Search in all Folders, only in, specific), (match in body, subject, ... ) the search result is always empty. I stopped akonadi and removed the ~/.local/share/baloo directory. After reboot the the directory was there again and all its subdirectories, including email. This is its contents now: -rw-r--r-- 1 hp family 0 Jul 18 09:57 flintlock -rw-r--r-- 1 hp family 28 Jul 18 09:57 iamchert -rw-r--r-- 1 hp family 0 Jul 18 09:57 postlist.DB -rw-r--r-- 1 hp family 13 Jul 18 09:57 postlist.baseA -rw-r--r-- 1 hp family 0 Jul 18 09:57 record.DB -rw-r--r-- 1 hp family 13 Jul 18 09:57 record.baseA -rw-r--r-- 1 hp family 0 Jul 18 09:57 termlist.DB -rw-r--r-- 1 hp family 13 Jul 18 09:57 termlist.baseA All these files are empty. So it seems ballo isn't indexing my email. I have a local acount and a pop3 account. How can I tell baloo to index my email folders? BTW: Quick search on subjects is working. Reproducible: Always
I'm on 16.10 and search doesn't work at all.
