One user never leaves the indexing status

When I look at the "indexing status", I always see the same user, with "Items to index" set at 2500.
"Items indexed" goes up to 2500, then it start again.
 
This user has a huge mailbox (35.9 GB, 18500+ files on the disk), but is this normal or should I look for a problem somewhere ?
 
In the indexing log I see stuff like :
 
12:27:26 [**@**.com] Index commited to disk
12:27:26 [**@**.com] Globally Indexed Items > 5000, freeing memory
12:27:26 [**@**.com] User Indexed
12:27:26 [**@**.com] Marking user as not being indexed.
 
Thanks !

You can try to re-index the users by login as the domain admin and go to Settings | Domain Settings | Users and then select the users and click on the reindex button.  This will cause the users to be re-index and based on the about of emails they have it will take some time.  If after waiting they are still stuck in a index status you can manual delete the index folder off the server.  To do this stop the SmarterMail service and go to the users folder (default path C:\SmarterMail\Domains\(domina name)\Users\(users name)) and delete the Index folder.  Then start the SmarterMail service and do another re-index.  If you follow these steps it should resolve the issue.  If it does not you will need to open up a support ticket.

Also I see according to your post you are running version 11.  In version 12.5 there is a fix for account that get stuck in a index loop.  If your license allows you to upgrade to this or later version this should also resolve the issue.

Thank you Brian, I'll try this if it is still indexing tonight.
