I don't find a resident or background indexing program.

But some day I will

have you looked at any of the desktop search programmes?
There was an old thread about them resurrected here lately:

we are going around in clircles.

all your emails are stored in plain text in the files with no extension, eg. Drafts, Sent Mail

which means there should be no problem indexing them - or am I misunderstanding something?

But Tomos is not structured search like in MailStore Home I think
That's the reason

Okay, got you.
I'm no expert, so I'm not going to be able to help much - I'm just trying to figure out what *exactly* the problem is. (I'm also unhappy with Thunderbird search btw - maybe we just need a better email client :-/ )

So, by 'structured', do you mean - tell me where (in which folder: sent/inbox/etc) the email is located (?)

Search in the subject, in the message, in the sender.
But I suppose I am talking nonsense.

In the post seems good for this purpose :

Archivarious 3000
dtSearch
File Locator pro

All seems to go well.

I gonna to try first.
