Kerry vs. beagle-search
Here's a strange thing - running Kerry I search for a certain word and get 28 matches. I run the same search on beagle-search and get showing top 37 of 40 top matches. This happens repeatedly, for just about every keyword - Kerry always shows substantially less results and misses some of the matches. I'm using beagle 0.2.17 on Debian SID and Kerry 0.2.1. - Aviram ___ Dashboard-hackers mailing list Dashboard-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers

Yes, some of the differences is exactly in the number of mail attachments. But other times it's just certain mails that Kerry misses (not attachments, not special file types). There could be a bug with kerry too. The best you can do is, run query which returns small number of results in kerry and beagle-query. Check which results are not shown in kerry, and file bugs about them in bugs.kde.org (there should an open bug about email attachments). Ok, I'll try to do that when I have some time - I just wanted to check and make sure it's a known problem and not some misconfiguration or something completely new.

beagle losing indexes?
Up until the latest version, beagle has been working fairly well for me, indexing and searching close to 50,000 emails. I then upgraded to 0.2.9 and strange things started to happen, like emails not showing up in the search. I removed the indexing files (by deleting ~/.beagle) and restarted beagle, but the index count remained low. Then I repeated the clean-up (deleted the .beagle dir and restarted beagle) and watched the indexing more closely: $ beagle-index-info | grep -A 2 KMail Name: KMail Count: 16082 Indexing: True $ beagle-index-info | grep -A 2 KMail Name: KMail Count: 17539 Indexing: True $ beagle-index-info | grep -A 2 KMail Name: KMail Count: 9083 Indexing: True Notice how the index count drops. Nothing was changed between the 2nd and 3rd beagle-index-info calls. In fact, I was away from my computer. At this point beagled-helper is at 100% CPU, but the index count remains static. - Aviram ___ Dashboard-hackers mailing list Dashboard-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers
Holmes
On my system, Holmes just displays a list of files that matched the query. There is no title, date, or hit indication - just a list of file names with full paths. Best works nicely, so I imagine it's not a dependency problem. Am I missing something? - Aviram ___ Dashboard-hackers mailing list Dashboard-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers
best doesn't show the mail icon
Silly question, but it's been bothering me for a while. The mail backend results don't appear with the envelope icon in best. IM results (kopete in my case) have the proper icon, but mail results (Kmail in my case) simply have no icon. Where does best search for the icon? Am I just missing a file or something? - Aviram ___ Dashboard-hackers mailing list Dashboard-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers

Files backend problem
Hi, I've been having problems with the Files backend from the pre-0.1 CVS that still happen with 0.1. The description of the problem is identical to the one described earlier - best freezes during rendering if any files appear in the search results, and indexing stops (even indexing of other backends). Also, beagle-shutdown leaves zombies that are only killed by kill -9. Here is the last snippet of the IndexHelper log. After that no indexing is done and best freezes. If I kill beagle and restart it while disabling the files backend, everything works ok: 05-09-20 00.11.56.37 03405 IndexH ERROR: Exception occurred duing DoPullProperties. 05-09-20 00.11.56.38 03405 IndexH ERROR: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object in 0x0 unknown method in (wrapper managed-to-native) GLib.Value:g_value_get_string (GLib.Value) in 0xe GLib.Value:op_Explicit (Value val) in 0x00163 Beagle.Filters.FilterPPT:ExtractMetaData (Gsf.Input sumStream, Gsf.Input docSumStream) in 0x0011f Beagle.Filters.FilterPPT:DoPullProperties () 05-09-20 00.11.56.74 03405 IndexH DEBUG: Helper Size: VmRSS=44.7 MB, size=5.02, 100.4% 05-09-20 00.11.56.74 03405 IndexH DEBUG: Process too big, shutting down! 05-09-20 00.11.56.74 03405 IndexH DEBUG: CancelIfBlocking Beagle.Daemon.ConnectionHandler 05-09-20 00.11.56.74 03405 IndexH DEBUG: (1) Waiting for 2 workers... 05-09-20 00.11.56.74 03405 IndexH DEBUG: waiting for server '/home/aviram/.beagle/socket-helper' 05-09-20 00.11.56.74 03405 IndexH DEBUG: waiting for HandleConnection (8) 05-09-20 00.11.56.81 03405 IndexH DEBUG: +file:///home/aviram/Documents/some-very-large-and-complicated-powerpoint-file.ppt 05-09-20 00.11.57.01 03405 IndexH DEBUG: Server '/home/aviram/.beagle/socket-helper' shut down 05-09-20 00.11.57.02 03405 IndexH DEBUG: (2) Waiting for 1 worker... 05-09-20 00.11.57.02 03405 IndexH DEBUG: waiting for HandleConnection (8) This has made the files backend practically unusable for me.

Kmail support
Hi, I've been using D Bera's kmail support code for a few weeks now, and it works wonderful for indexing and searching for both Maildir and IMAP cache directories. It has a nice ability to auto-detect maildir directory and seems to be quite stable (I have 70,000+ mails). Overall, it fulfils 100% of my needs with regards to email search, and makes beagle the killer application on my desktop. I was hoping it'll merge into the 0.1 release, but I saw it wasn't there, and isn't in the CVS either - are there plans to include it any time soon? - Aviram ___ Dashboard-hackers mailing list Dashboard-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers

Perhaps the best course of action would be to add a ./configure option (something like --enablekdesupport), and that will include Bera's KDE code instead of the gnome code. - Aviram ___ Dashboard-hackers mailing list Dashboard-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers

Maildir support status
Hi,
I'm a KDE user that uses beagle for indexing Maildir info. I would like to
share my experience so far, and what I had to do to get Maildir working in
KDE.
Maildir support has been integrated in version 0.0.12, but has drastically
improved in the current CVS version. This, in combination with the speed
improvements (especially during beagled startup) makes indexing my entire
maildir (over 10,000 mails) feasible.
Preparations:
1. Kmail sometimes adds custom headers to mail files. Specifically, the
anti-virus wizard will add a custom header to the beginning of an email file.
This makes beagle (gnomevfs, actually) misrecognize those mail files.
You can check it with gnomevfs-info. Make sure it returns 'message/rfc822' as
the mime type. If not, use sed, or your favorite file-and-replace utility to
remove the custom headers or to add a fictitious Return-Path line:
Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To the beginning of the file. Don't forget to delete the beagle db and
re-index.
2. KDE users should install nautilus (to get best's 'reveal in file manager'
working), and make sure mail files are open with kmail by default (right
click on the mail file and choose properties. You'll find it from there)
3. Kmail names mail folders as directories that start with a dot ('.'). Beagle
skips those 'hidden' directory, so you have to manually add all mail folders:
$ beagle-config indexing AddRoot /home/user/Mail/.Folder.directory/Stuff/cur
(this is a bug/enhancement request:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=311755).
4. Maildir files are handled by the directory crawler, which means that
'beagle-index-info' will show mail files as Files and not as Mail. Don't
worry if your Mail count stays at zero.
5. Note that 'best' also searches maildir files as 'files' and not 'mail'.
This is a bug (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=310464).
The last remaining 'showstopper' for me, is the fact that best shows the file
names (which looks like: 1115122924.6214.qBfSs:2,S, in folder cur) instead
of the subject, from, to, and other interesting fields. This problem is
mentioned here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=310992 and makes
searching fairly impractical for more than 3-4 results. You have to click on
each result to see what it is :-(
Other than that, Maildir is handled quite nicely. Thanks for the great work!
Any comments/corrections/ideas are of course welcomed.
