Yes, it is beautiful! If you have the task of maintaining (which is
much harder than creating!) a large number of documents this saves
massive amounts of time.

...

I think the index might be broken... some files are old. Mmm...

...

So I have to force rebuild of the indexes. I know how to stop the daemon
(beagle-shutdown) but not how to restart it. [...] ah, simple: try to search
something, it says the daemon is not running, and it offers to restart it.
[...] Now it is indexing mail, althought I have the mail backends disabled
(I'd want plain mail scan (pine/mutt), not kmail, evolution or thunderbird,
which contain the wrong data).

We'll see...

It worked.

It started by looking at all my email, even though I had dissabled the backends. For several hours it scanned mail (I didn't notice slowness). I had to also exclude the patterns where kmail indexes were stored, and even that was not enough: I had to kill the daemon, then restart it. Then it scanned the rest of the folders in little over an hour, forgetting email.

And it works: it does find the content in the openpffice files I search for, and fast.
