I did that (as I do not use desktop search, I removed ~/.local/share/baloo completely) and the baloorc
Then started akonadiserver and thought I should now see some disk/CPU activity ... nothing.
I let the PC run overnight.
Still the search does not work (it finds absolutely nothing).
I also restarted akonadi, which did not help either.

The baloo email dir contains:
.local/share/baloo/email:
total 724

which looks rather small (I have thousands of email from +10 years in my local mails (I only use POP accounts)).

Any other idea ?
