[MlMt] Spotlight testing

Hi,

After running the command which seemed to go OK, I attempted a spotlight 
search. However, spotlight would not respond in that I am able to enter 
a search string but no matches appear. This occurred even for matches 
elsewhere on the system. Spotlight was not busy indexing either.

So I opened Activity Monitor and saw that the mds process was registered 
as using 100CPU although 100CPU was not really in use when looking at 
the CPU load realtime monitoring. It seemed that Spotlight had 
'partially' crashed. So I killed the mds process which auto-restarted. I 
could then do spotlight searches again. However, no MailMate matches are 
showing up.
