Search body of posts

Andre

I am working on the search feature now and searching the bodies and headers for text is possible when talking about cached messages. With cached I mean the messages that has been read (not marked as read but read as downloaded)

Is that what you are looking for?

Snit

Yes, that is what I would like. Clearly you cannot search though posts which are not downloaded.

Not everyone knows that, but I am glad you do.

Are there controls for how long to cache locally? I can't see any, but I'm sure text users will want to manage the size of their archive - often to a larger message count/date range than you'd expect.

Andre

You can clear the cache entirely if you want for each or all subscriptions.

Bernd

I think what Jaimie meant is not to clear the whole cache manually but to have it cleared automatically after X days.
That´s how I would like it too.

Jaimie

Yes, exactly - and not only that but text people might want to set it to a high number rather than a low number. Because we're packrats.

Andre

I'll change it.
Thanks for the input.

Andre

Advanced search (and much more) has been added to the upcoming release v0.68.
Searching is very fast, but required a complete new database setup.

Unfortunately, this means that the current databases will be deleted and you need to setup the subscriptions once again. Sorry for that, but a lot has been changed and a simple database conversion is not possible.

Great to hear about search. And the loss of old databases and the like is to be expected at this point in development. You are doing an amazing job and it is very much appreciated.
