So have I with the vala version. I did it to scratch my itch and it has
been working for me ever since. However, I am not very interested in
maintaining or improving this piece of code. So, if the vala version
goes into the repository, I would appreciate if I would not be the
maintainer.

You know that I like python ;). And the python version is certainly more
hackable for me too. The vala version is cool because it is translatable
into pure C and it has some logic for minimizing the number of
lookups. (I think that is now also in the python version). Once the
from/to/cc addresses are stored in xapian itself, we are much less IO
bound than now, I'd think.
