Is anyone successfully using the plugin with Google > Desktop? I am. After you install the plugin you have to set up its configuration (i.e. which folders to index, etc.) via Options/Preferences/Plugins and then do a first "Re-Index Selected" and also select "Monitor selected folders on exit". In GDT Prefrences, aside of "The Bat! E-Mail Client Plug-In" under Complements, which should be ticked after installing the plugin, you also need to tick the option for Email under Search Types. My GDT is in Spanish so the English translations I provided may not be exact. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Hello Jenny, > Personally I think the Google Desktop is rather naff, it doesn't > search across more than one hard disk. That is not my experience, maybe you are using an old version. Mine searches, by default, all hard drives in the system. And you can even add (or exclude) drives or folders from other systems in the network. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Have you configured the plugin? If so, I would suggest that after selecting which folders you want to index, you manually do a Re-index. -- Best regards, Miguel A.
