[OSX-Users] Re: mail (apple) search failing? rebuild search??

Go to System Preferences / Spotlight / Privacy.
Add you hard disk to the list of places not to index.
Wait a few seconds.
Remove it again.
That will delete the spotlight database.

Also worth checking what types of file you are indexing in the settings 
while you're there.
