Big Sur Email search not working

I would suggest a little more details in your posts.
However, I happen to know what you are talking about and offer a work around....
1) Open mail with the shift key down to open in safe mode. Then Close mail
2) Open Mail again with shift key pressed to open in safe mode.Then close Mail
3) Restart computer
4) Open Mai and try searching again... It should work now.
Note, this will only work for about a day before you have to repeat.

John - This worked perfectly and has not stopped working. I have not switched users since , but I can easily repeat if the problem presents itself again. This looks like something that should be addressed in a future software update.
Thanks

Yes. It’s actually quite easy.
restart while holding down Command+R and then select reinstall Big Sur
afyer about 30-45 minutes, it should solve the problem. I did it about a week ago and search is working perfectly all the time now.
also, this will not lose any of your data, but as always, you should have a backup first.
This problem and the "fixes" are something that Apple engineers should have addressed before releasing the update. I think they are all getting really sloppy and too self-important. Time for a shake-up!
After reinstalling and having a few weeks of fixed searching, I'm sad to announce that it is no longer working. I did the shift-start thing to get it back momentarily, but the reinstall is temporary fix also... just for a longer period of time.
This needs to be fixed
It's work only for day or two.....
Fixed for me after doing a command-R install!
So You sugestion is reinstall system?
Try it, don't work for me...
