Anders, I think your "indexing" is still ongoing. You can speed that up 
by following advice in this post on KDE forums:
http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=215&t=98857

for me 4.9 works "almost perfect", there are minor issues with filtering 
and incoming mail. But groups/lists, mail address completion and message 
searching works for me now.

I had to do "a trick" to refresh the index database after many upgrades:
see my second post in this topic, before that only a few of mail were 
indexed/searchable:
