Description Evan Klitzke 2007-09-13 03:36:09 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
In Evolution, you can set whether or not mail should be indexed on a per-folder basis (by right clicking the folder, and then clicking properties). If mail is set to be not indexed in Evolution, tracker should not index the mail either.

Steps to reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

This one should be a RFE(enhancement).
Comment 2 Carlos Garnacho 2009-03-11 12:44:58 UTC 
Marking as such

Can the reporter of this bug set the _version_ so we can target bugs to work on more easily please. We can also have an idea about if these bugs are likely to be obsolete too.

If you don't set the version, we are less likely to look at them.

Sorry for the spam, but I don't want to say this 88 times on each bug :)

Philip, can we do this in the plugin we wrote?

This must be a phantom feature. I don't see anything about 'indexing' in the properties window for folders in Evolution.

What I do see is "Index message body data". But this isn't related to metadata indexing that Tracker does at all.
