Subject: [sync] Search timeout problems
Message-ID: <f71252de-1ba7-449f-a4e5-9526a9625550@imcfarla.homelinux.net>

Hello,

I finally had some time to investigate why search never works on my 
phone when using Activesync against horde.

It appears the request comes from the phone and is processed but then 
the phone times out before the result is sent back to it.

I have put in a patch to limit the number of folders to search through 
to just "special" folders and at least this gets some results back.

+            $mboxes[] = new Horde_Imap_Client_Mailbox('INBOX');
+            foreach ($this->getSpecialMailboxes() as $mailbox) {
+                // Ignore Templates and Trash folder and a weird blank one
+                if ($mailbox->basename != "Templates" && $mailbox->basename != 'Trash' && $mailbox->value != "") {
+                    $mboxes[] = new Horde_Imap_Client_Mailbox($mailbox->value);
+                }
              }
          }
          foreach ($mboxes as $mbox) {

But this can't be right.  There must be a timeout or a progress message 
we can send back to stop the phone from timing out.

Any thoughts?

Regards,
