Topic: roundcube search timesout

==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release): 1.6.4 MARIADB edition.
- Deployed with iRedMail Easy or the downloadable installer? downloadable installer
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS

- [IMPORTANT] Related original log or error message is required if you're experiencing an issue.
====

We have a new iredmail setup. The requirement from our server is very heavy on receiving and storage and almost none on sending.  So we need to receive 10k email per minute but don't send anything out.

We have close to 3 million emails in our inbox right now. The problem we are facing are:

1. Roundcube inbox is slow to load
2. Search function on roundcube timesout. Is there a way we can directly search mailbodies and bypass roundcube.

What all can we do to finetune the search function.

Re: roundcube search timesout

1: Try to organize emails in different IMAP folders to avoid too many emails in same folder.
2: Try to enable FTS to speed up the search: https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/fts/

Currently fts-xapian is the easiest one and works great so far:
