WDS 4 not indexing WLM

OK, I've looked at the various discussions of this and I still can't get it to work. In particular I've checked the store folder, checked eml and nws and verified the indexing service is running. I've rebuilt the WDS index and still no joy.

A while back I tried WDS 3 and had no joy either. To be honest, even if I get it working by further fiddling around the experience shouldn't be like this. It should "just work." To be fair, it does in fact do this for Outlook, as I've tried it at work. WLM has been out quite a while now so I would expect a new version of WDS to work out of the box with it.

I do have Copernic Desktop Search on the system which I think is still the best of the desktop search products. Unfortunately, it does not support WLM, hence why I'm trying WDS. However, it won't be on my PC for much longer at this rate.

I'm normally a huge fan of Microsoft's but they do seem to be losing their touch recently.

My PC is Win XP SP2.
