This bug has been filled here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tracker/+bug/137741 "Binary package hint: tracker in tracker (indexing preferences) it is not possible to add mailboxes. it allows only evolution mail nothing else. i use balsa, which has the same mbox format, but i cannot add the path to these mboxes! thank you - it is very fast!"
Balsa is not supported at the moment. There is two possibilities: 1) Write a balsa module, similar to the current evolution module. Ask balsa developers for help, and feel free to ask in #tracker for the tracker-related issues 2) Wait for our new Email interaction model. We are working on it for evolution. Take a look into http://live.gnome.org/Evolution/Metadata You would need to write the same for balsa. Thanks for the interest!
Changing component, since we have duplication of components here.
Hi Pedro, can you re-test this with 0.7.2 that will be released today to see if this is working for you now? (with Evolution I presume)
Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided. Please feel free to reopen this bug if you can provide the information asked for. Thanks!
This bug is about Tracker not indexing non-Evolution mailboxes. Comment #3 seems to ask for testing with Evolution, which doesn't really make sense. For what it's worth, Tracker 0.7.19 still doesn't seem to index non-Evolution mailboxes.
Moving "Indexer" component bugs to "General" since "Indexer" refers to the old 0.6 architecture
