*** Excluding directories from indexing

If you want to exclude certain directories from being indexed (for example,

directories with spam-messages), put a file called =.noindex= in the directory

to exlude, and it will be ignored when indexing (including its children)

Contacts (names + email addresses) are cached separately, and can be
