Dear Benoit, Deleting indexes has a significant impact for some IMAP clients like Iphone Mail (standard email client on iphone). This application uses indexes in the IMAP synchronization process. I found that if the indexes are deleted, the users who use the Mail application on iPhone will only be able to access the emails that are found in the newly created indexes when the James server is started. All other emails that are in the email repository and are not indexed become inaccessible from the mobile phone The workaround is to run a full reindexing process after each startup of the James server, which consumes time and is not optimal
