That reminds me:
"In C++, a friend may touch another object's private parts." :-)

To be serious, it could be interesting to use mairix[1] to build indexes
and to make a UI as a SquirrelMail plugin. It can search very fast in
its indexes; results are presented in a separate folder containing
symlinks to the actual message files. My non-IMAP-using colleagues
*love* mairix.

Perhaps mairix would have to be adapted a bit – when I last tried it, it
didn't work instantly with Dovecot, but I didn't have the time and/or
the impetus to investigate it. Some work on the side of the IMAP server
would be needed, too, of course. All in all, the whole thing shouldn't
be too difficult, at least for Maildir backends. And no, I'm not doing
it – too much to do, too little time, same old, same old.

(I have cross-posted this to the plugins mailing list; dunno if that works.)

Regards, Jürgen.
