Hello Olivier;
You likely haven' t received a response as it is hard to understand what
precisely you seek.
Can't say that your installation of SquirrelMail has any problems because
your findings are somewhat ambiguous. Obviously, if for example you were to
search the headers and did not find the word "Subject", yes, there would be
a problem. Otherwise it's just a matter of how you configured the search
plugin. You should vist the SquirrelMail forum to shed some light on this
aspect.
If you want to look at the DbMail query used when SquirrelMail initates an
IMAP search then set the trace level to 5 for dbmail-imapd and then read the
maillog once your search test completes. That might help explain what you
see in your results.
Essentialy, Squirrelmail is using the IMAP search function whereas DBMA
(DbMail Administrator) is a more powerful tool using its own search
alogrithm applied directly at the system level to the database, which may or
may not be better at returning fast, relevant results depending on what you
wish to accomplish. 'Search' has many boolean and non-boolean permutations.
You are experiencing two valid but unique approaches which generate
different outcomes.
IMAP search is highly cionfigurable. Try a search with Mozilla Mail,
Thunderbird, Outlook Express, Squirrelmail and you will get different
results from each. You can also alter the search parameters for each.
Best...
Mike

Subject: [Dbmail-dev] Search problem with Squirrelmail
Hello everybody !
I just installed DBMail v2.0.4 with mysql on Debian Sarge (package
dbmail2-mysql w/innodb tables) [mysql 4.1.11 charset utf8_general_ci].
I am also using Squirrelmail 1.4.4.
I created a test account, copied 500 messages (by copy/paste from another
IMap server [Courier-Imap] using Outlook Express).
I can successfully read, move, trash messages from Outlook Express AND from
Squirrelmail. This is great ;)
I have a problem when I search a message, with a keyword to be found in the
body of INBOX messages :
- with DBMail Administrator Web interface, the result is correct.
- with Squirrelmail, when I search into the body with the same mailbox and
the same keyword, some messages are found (while they do not contain this
keyword) and the *right* messages are not found !!!
Have you already seen this problem before and is there any way to solve the
problem ? I searched google and forums but with no luck yet.
THANK you very much for your help !
Olivier
