pdf and thunderbird not indexing mogens 10-08-2005

I have downloaded the two add-ins for pdf and thunderbird, installed
these and then rebooted. After this I have tried to rebuild the search
index.
However, neither pdf-files nor thunderbird emails are being indexed.

I would have expected to see the adobe pdf file type under "Other" but
no adobe logo anywhere.

Any ideas on what I have to do?

Thanks

Mogens

Tried to de-install and install the ifilter - then pdf-indexing worked!
Wonderful and truly amazing that it can even locate words in relative
bad 150 dpi scans. This really means that I can now throw out a bunch of
paper piles.

Desktop search is looking into the Thunderbird folders, but apparantly
nothing is being indexed. I have tried to force desktop search to index,
and it has reported that indexing is complete, but still no Thunderbird
items?
