Global indexing/search stopping/freezing in specific folder
Problem
I am trying to index a large IMAP mailbox. The indexer seems to be working fine then always stops while indexing the 'Archive' folder (~27k messages). Gets to a certain % and stops. This is the first time I have tried to index this mailbox.
Steps I have tried
- Close and re-open TB
- The indexing will restart happily and will index new emails but will still get stuck at some point during the Archive folder
- Deleted the global-messages-db.sqlite and attempted rebuild as per here
- Repair folder (Archive)
- The percentage it 'stops' at will vary if I have done one of the above steps (e.g repair) but if you just close and re-open it always appears to stop at the same place.
Errors/Debugging
When it stops that co-incides with the following error messages (This is repeatable): (Sorry I don't know how to format code blocks on this forum, trying standard MD)
First:

Second:

A user (u758982) reported similar error messages in This bug report
However the bug reported (and now apparently fixed) related to:
TypeError: aPart is null MimeMessage.sys.mjs:142:7
Which in the case of u758982 followed the messages I have above.
I do not get the MimeMessage error.
Setup
Thunderbird 128.3.0esr (64bit) on Mac OS (14.6.1).
My thoughts
I presume there is a particular e-mail in that folder which has some kind of issue or error that causes the indexer to halt. I presume it's in some way related to calendar (e.g. and ICS invite or something with a formatting error) as the error messages seem to indicate that. Unforuntately I can't identify which e-mail it is or I'd probably just deal with that.
I'd appreciate any help in troubleshooting - if it's an error on my side or can be easily fixed (.e.g identify the e-mail!). Happy to provide more details as needed.
Thanks in advance.

I see your posting report in the "auto removed by reddit" queue, probably because of the logs that it included.
