If this is true - if this represents a failure to rebuild the index, instead of a failure to accurately record when the index was rebuilt - well, actually it's a problem in both cases just a much bigger one in the former. Please test to make sure (for example, are these messages indexed within 48 hours?) and if true file a PR. You may be on to something. Messages I sent to ports@ on Tuesday have not appeared on the index. Robert Huff
