I agree (fwiw I didn't move this item to fixed issues). I also found
it pretty confusing (and non intuitive) to have two email categories,
although I can see the point that it can make sense if you have
multiple email programs (like kmail or evolution).
My suggestion was, to only show one category as long as there is only
one email provider.

That has been fixed, yes. It was the broken application/gaim mtime
checking which garnacho had fixed (which caused them to be reindexed
every time when trackerd was restarted)

I think I should update the wiki....
