Hi,
According to the IMAP spec (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2060#page-37),
if I do a search for "TO isocpp.org" it should find all the messages
whose To: field contains the string "isocpp.org", but dovecot is
returning me an empty list. However, a search for "TO t...@isocpp.org"
produces a long list of messages. What am I doing wrong?
First, you referenced the wrong RFC - RFC 2060 has been obsoleted
by RFC 3501.
Thanks for pointing me to the right one.
Second, your assumption is correct - TO should do a substring search.
But this works fine for me (using version 2.1.10).
Using 2.1.6 and 2.1.9 built --with-clucene --with-libstemmer, I get the
same empty result with either of these two commands:
UID SEARCH TO isocpp.org
UID SEARCH TO "isocpp.org"
Am I formatting the command wrongly?
Incidentally, if I turn of fts_lucene and turn on fts_squat, I get the
same result.
Lucene for sure does not support subtext searching. Squat used to...
but IIRC things may have changed for v2.1. Try the wiki.
