Greetings all;

I have been harassed by bad index files notices, but I may have found the 
cause. I just went thru every folder in its Mail corpus finding several 
dozen leftover claws files, either in the root of each folder, in the 
cur or tmp subdirs, nuked them all and restarted kmail, which then 
bitched about every folder I had cleaned up. I closed the advisory and 
fully expected to see kmail hogging the cpu up to 100% for an hour or 
more as it had done in the past, but it was done reindexing everything 
in just a long minute!

All of the claws crap carried dates in 2013 to 2014, which would be about 
the time frame I did have it installed.

So if your kmail is acting likes its infected with flooby dust, see what 
happens if you do a bit of housecleaning in your ~/Mail subdir. I think 
it was getting confused over encountering strange file names.

Time will tell the truth of this tail of course.
