:  5 seconds per 1000 seems a tad slow to me. But I'm picky. It still might

Yep. I agree. I think that the problem is that you need something else
(appart from grep) to search on big file trees. Any search tool that lets
you lookup file paths by content would work with your mail as well.
We have a home grown program that does that,
but it does not work well enough and
does not deserve distribution.

I have placed a copy of our local /sys/src/cmd/mail2fs at
/n/sources/contrib/nemo/mail2fs, in case anyone wants to experiment before
we clean it up.
