But what I'm not clear about: Does it then get updated on every delivery

assuming there's been at least one message delivered since the last search?
Currently it gets updated only when searching. I wanted to have it
updated immediately (optionally) while mails are being delivered, but
never got around to implementing it.
OK, some followups then:
- Is the index rebuilt from scratch every time, or should updates be fairly
quick? I just did a search on my inbox (about 10,000 messages), and I know
I've done a search there in the past month - yet it either took many, many
minutes, or it timed out.
- If I wrote a script to log in and search for something, and ran it every
night through cron, would that achieve daily indexing?
