Hi!,

Ok!. I will answer myself. The problem is EagleFiler. The latest version is
not indexing properly.

The solution: use *MailMate importer* or *MuttLight importer*. Although the
later must be compiled by hand. Both work.

Foxtrot relies on third-party Spotlight importers to work properly, and I
think that CTM * should publish a list of recommended applications to index
the "common" files. *

It doesn't make sense to pay $120 and have to search for two days the
internet to learn how to index a standard file. EML is not some kind of
obscure format. Many applications use it.

Also I am still awaiting help from they support.

Regards.
José
