notmuch-mutt: Notmuch (of a) helper for Mutt
|
||
|
|
============================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
notmuch-mutt provide integration among the [Mutt] [1] mail user agent and the
|
||
|
|
[Notmuch] [2] mail indexer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
notmuch-mutt offer two main integration features. The first one is the ability
|
||
|
|
of stating a **search query interactively** and then jump to a fresh Maildir
|
||
|
|
containing its search results only. The second one is the ability to
|
||
|
|
**reconstruct threads on the fly** starting from the currently highlighted
|
||
|
|
mail, which comes handy when a thread has been split across different maildirs,
|
||
|
|
archived, or the like.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
notmuch-mutt enables to trigger mail searches via a Mutt macro (usually F8) and
|
||
|
|
reconstruct threads via another (usually F9). Check the manpage for the 2-liner
|
||
|
|
configuration snippet for your Mutt configuration files (~/.muttrc,
|
||
|
|
/etc/Muttrc, or a /etc/Muttrc.d snippet).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A [blog style introduction] [3] to notmuch-mutt is available and includes some
|
||
|
|
more rationale for its existence.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Arguably, some of the logics of notmuch-mutt could disappear by adding support
|
||
|
|
for a --output=symlinks flag to notmuch.
