Slow search

Using v10.1.4588. All of my accounts are set up for POP. I recently added a new POP email account and moved all of my previous email account’s “inbox”, “sent”, and “trash” emails to the new account’s respective folders. The move included over 18,000 emails and took 10-15 minutes to complete. Since doing the move, searching has become very slow; in excess of a minute or two compared to a few seconds prior to the move.

I’m assuming my actions have caused the issue. Is there an index file that can be rebuilt? Anything else I can do to correct the problem?

Rebuilding my PC’s native windows search index solved my issue.

Control Panel ==> Indexing Options ==> Advanced ==> Rebuild
