Solaris now bundles Evolution and Thunderbird. Users may use two email
clients. Other distro like Unbuntu, bundles Evolution, but users ïseems
to download Thunderbird themselves.

For me, I use Evolution for my work stuff, and Thunderbird for my
personal stuff like gmail. It is possible use more than one email
clients, so we could not delete the db file directly.

the problem with deleting emails one by one is they do not recover the
disk space and the index becomes stuffed full of duds
Not very understand your meaning here. This patch will delete records in
email-meta.db and email-contents.db, wont's touch any emails.

What's meaning of "duds" here? I found a problem, when user delete
files, the total number on t-s-t is not changed to the exact right
number at first refresh. For example, I have 4 .txt files, and I delete
them all.
First refresh: 4 
Second refresh: 2
ïïThird refresh: 1
ïïFourth refresh: 0

Are you talking about this issue? If so, this is not email only bug.

duds occur when deletes happen - index only removes duds when you search
on a word (the duds for that word are removed)

so you suffer index stuffing

its probably best to check if they have multiple email apps indexed and
then decide which root to go
