This does nothing in 10.3. Seems as though they rewrote the way indexing is handled.

I am sure what you mean to say is that you imagine it won't happen in 10.3, as there is no legal way for you to tell us anything else.

Not necessarily, he could be a developer who has the latest version of 10.3 that's available on the ADC site.

In which case he'd be violating his NDA, no?

If your mailbox names have spaces in them you might want to make the following change to the suggested command line:
find ~/Library/Mail -name 'mbox.SKindex*' -print0 xargs -0 ls -l
This uses nulls for delimiters instead of spaces.

Is this not the same as selecting Mailbox -> Rebuild Mailbox from the menu?

Didn't see robg's edit there. Pardon me.

I tried the Mailbox->Rebuild Mailbox in Mail and it didn't reduce the size of the index for me. Only deleting the index file reduced the index size.

Apr 01, 2020  Designate a System Photo Library in Photos If you have multiple photo libraries on your Mac, you can choose one to be the System Photo Library.

May 30, 2019  Despite the fact that Apple keeps the Mac Library folder hidden from users, it’s good to learn how to show the Library folder on Mac. You may need to access the Library folder when you need to clear cache, remove the app’s leftovers, edit preference files manually, etc. Jan 12, 2020  It's not clear why Apple decided to hide the user's Library folder, but you have multiple ways to get it back: two Apple provides (depending on the version of OS X you are using) and one in the underlying file system. The method you use depends on whether you want permanent access to the Library folder or only when you need to go there. So I am now using vmware player to mount the osx now, and since I accidentally installed the svga display driver with the vmware tool one from darwin now I cant change the resolution of it so I nee.

Since you're already in the shell, there's no need to go to the Finder, find the Mail folder and then do a Get Info on it. Instead, assuming you are in your home directory, type the following:
du -ks Library/Mail
This will give you a total disk usage figure in kilobytes for the mail folder. Run this before and after and glory in the difference!

Note that you must be using the original version of find supplied with OS X, located in /usr/bin. If you're like me and have the GNU findutils installed via Fink, that version of find (located in /sw/bin) does not have the -delete option.

For tcsh, add a backslash before the semicolon
find . -name 'mbox.SKindex*' -exec rm {} ;

I had to do that in bash too. I could have sworn the backslash was there when I pasted the command into the comment box. I guess I just need to proofread more carefully.

A few comments on this:
I love to keep *all* of my mails in the actual program, just in case I want to see what I wrote to somebody 7 years ago. Thus, I have approx. 18.000 Mails in a few subfolders of my Mail.app and Finder sais that ~/Library/Mail has 316 MB. So I was desperate to try this hint.
Here's what I did in the Terminal:
[microlap8:~/Library/Mail] becker% /usr/bin/du -ks .
329076 .
[microlap8:~/Library/Mail] becker% /usr/bin/find . -name 'mbox.SKindex*' -delete
[microlap8:~/Library/Mail] becker% /usr/bin/du -ks .
284696 .
<Rebuilding Indexes in Mail>
[microlap8:~/Library/Mail] becker% /usr/bin/du -ks .
307260 .
I just want to make sure that everybody remembers to recreate the indexes first, before calculation the gain in space. I can assume now that I saved 22MB. Funny enough, the Finder still shows 316MB and the GetInfo-details are not better.
I would like to mention one more thing that came to my mind again when reading this hint: the other day my girlfriend complained that there was something wrong with her Mail.app and she had trouble with mails appearing and dissappearing and INBOX being too large. When I looked at it, she had 'View / Hide-deleted-messages' turned off and had marked thousands of emails deleted but they remained in the mailbox and were not deleted but only marked as.. Turning on that switch and really deleting the mails did help.
I wonder if the issue of some people saving lots of space by deleting the index-files and others not, could be related to how they usually trash their mails. (?)

Any help with this in Terminal it just says 'too many arguments' when you try it..and I thought that was just the US and France!

WARNING:
I had serious problems with my Sent mbox (which was very large).
After removing the indexes, Mail kept crashing while trying to rebuild Sent
I had to manually vi the mbox and move half of it elsewhere before it would rebuild without crashing.

One thing to note is that when you perform this task you loose everything that Mail uses to do auto complete. So if, like me, you have been so lazy as to not have added everyone into your address book you will loose the ability to find email addresses by auto complete, at least until you send them a mail again.
Worth the 80Mb space saving though.

Something very odd happened when I tried this hint. I quit Mail, ran the command in terminal, reopened Mail and all was fine. The indexes were rebuilt as I looked in each mailbox. So I thought all was good and shut down for the night.
The next day when I opened Mail, ALL of my mailboxes were gone, and there was no mail in the inbox, but it retained all of my account settings. It's almost as if my /Library/Mail folder was deleted and then recreated when I opened mail. I had a backup from about 5 days ago, but I still lost a considerable amount of mail that had been filed since then.
Any ideas?

Nice hint, THANK YOU! I saved 122,432 Kb after rebuilding all the indices (…by searching the entire message of all mailboxes for the letter a, quit Mail and checked the disk usage, then relaunched Mail and clicked on each mailbox--waiting until the Activity Viewer window was finished before clicking on the next folder. Not much change in size, only a few k, so I guess searching the entire content of all messages did the trick of rebuilding the indices).

Running 10.3.7, Mail(.app) 1.3 (v606/619).

Strange thing is, 'find' no longer finds any SKindex files. So far all is fine though and searches work (I really deleted all deleted messages beforehand).

Macbook Mail

Maybe the SKindex files are no longer used in 10.3's Mail?--and they were just sitting there all this time wasting space?
