When searching:
doveadm search mailbox shared/* BODY calib*
solr is queried with
...body:calib%5c*...
so the wildcard is escaped. Is there any way to disable this escaping?
I removed '*' and '?' from solr_escape_chars in
src/plugins/fts-solr/fts-backend-solr.c to allow to use them as
wildcards. I also removed '\' to allow them to be escaped so now these work:
doveadm search mailbox shared/* BODY calibrat*
to find words starting with calibrat
and
doveadm search mailbox shared/* BODY calibrati\\*n
to find "calibrati*n"
In my php search form I can now use "body calibrat*" and in thunderbird
search dialog as well. Searching for "calibrati*n" (using
"calibrati\*n") also works for php but not in Thunderbird.
One note: searching with "\*" is rather slow.
I cannot estimate the implications it has on the other search actions
(TO, FROM etc) so I hope someone with more knowledge can comment.
