It's been running for 2-3 hours maybe. Should it takes that long ? I guess it depends on how many emails to index, but on the other hand I have about the same amount of emails since before the upgrade (with the same 'daily' traffic). Unless.. is this something new ? > If you don't want mail/search enabled, you can goto > systemsettings->desktop search and uncheck 'enable email indexer' I will try that if this keeps on going. Related question, my email accounts are all IMAP. so what is it trying to index ? just the header or the whole message (and attachment) ? If the latter, that would be considerable network traffic.
