It's pretty accurate actually. Since we have an exchange server, "from scratch"
is basically the same thing as deleting my indexes. It takes me about
30 seconds
to set up evolution for a blank account to connect to my exchange server and
about an hour to regenerate the indexes for all of the mail in my exchange
folders. But you're right, I don't start have to start completely from scratch.
It just feels that way.
