Same issue as Apple Mail is stuck "Indexing…" - Apple Community. Search function in Apple Mail stopped working for me so I followed the instructions online and re-indexed my Mail by deleting the envelope files. Now the activity monitor shows my Mail app stuck on indexing for hours without any progress. Search still does not work. Any ideas how to "unstuck" it?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.4
Hi deniszheleznyy,
To help isolate and potentially resolve this issue we recommend using your device in safe mode as outlined here: How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support
Safe mode prevents your Mac from loading certain software as it starts up, including login items, system extensions not required by macOS, and fonts not installed by macOS. It also does a basic check of your startup disk, similar to using First Aid in Disk Utility. And it deletes some system caches, including font caches and the kernel cache, which are automatically created again as needed.
This article also contains next steps to take if the issue does or does not persist. We hope this helps.
Take care!
