Now the story. I debugged and realized that patched plugin generates - for search "xxx yyy": q=body:"XXX YYY*" It should be: q=body:XXX* +body:YYY* (not q=body:"XXX*" +body:"YYY*" - quotation does matter) But this does not work as expected. Prefix searches (with asterisk) are case-sensitive. I googled around and found this post - http://michaelkimsal.com/blog/solr-case-sensitivty/comment-page-1/#comment-78198 . It is old - 2007, but it looks SOLR is still case-sensitive for *. Because of dovecot capitalizes query (and this is right, I think), the search will never find a thing. I played with Solr admin for 3 evenings and I have to say - its behaviour is strange. For example, if I send several emails with body of 2 words: "xxx yyy", "yyy xxx", "xxX yYY" etc. - different case and different word order - it does not find "xxx" in all emails. Maybe Solr 1.4 is not production-ready yet and 1.3 is better. But it is enough for me, maybe I will return to it in next year. Now I will try to apply your changeset (fts-squat: Fixed searching multi-byte characters) to dovecot 1.2.4 (debian stable). If you think 1.2.8 is better, I will follow your recommendation.
