MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Virus-Checked: Checked by ClamAV on apache.org It seems that Lucene is (by default at least) ignoring and therefore not indexing words which may usually be considered extraneous such as "not", "who", "the" etc. For our usage we really need all words to be indexed and to be searchable. Is it possible to configure the indexing process somehow so that this can be achieved?
