/* Here's the current schema for our database:
 *
 * We currently have two different types of documents: mail and timestamps.
 *
 * Mail document
 * -------------
 * A mail document is associated with a particular email message file
 * on disk. It is indexed with the following prefixed terms:
 *
 *    Single terms of given prefix:
 *
 *	type:	mail
 *
 *	id:	Unique ID of mail, (from Message-ID header or generated
 *		as "notmuch-sha1-<sha1_sum_of_entire_file>.
 *
 *	thread:	The ID of the thread to which the mail belongs
 *
 *    Multiple terms of given prefix:
 *
 *	ref:    All unresolved message IDs from In-Reply-To and
 *		References headers in the message. (Once a referenced
 *		message is added to the database and the thread IDs
 *		are linked the corresponding "ref" term is dropped
 *		from the message document.)
 *
 *	tag:	Any tags associated with this message by the user.
 *
 *    A mail document also has two values:
 *
 *	TIMESTAMP:	The time_t value corresponding to the message's
 *			Date header.
 *
 *	MESSAGE_ID:	The unique ID of the mail mess (see "id" above)
 *
 * Timestamp document
 * ------------------
 * A timestamp document is used by a client of the notmuch library to
 * maintain data necessary to allow for efficient polling of mail
 * directories. The notmuch library does no interpretation of
 * timestamps, but merely allows the user to store and retrieve
 * timestamps as name/value pairs.
 *
 * The timestamp document is indexed with a single prefixed term:
 *
 *	timestamp:	The user's key value (likely a directory name)
 *
 * and has a single value:
 *
 *	TIMETAMPS:	The time_t value from the user.
 */

/* With these prefix values we follow the conventions published here:
 *
 * http://xapian.org/docs/omega/termprefixes.html
 *
 * as much as makes sense. Note that I took some liberty in matching
 * the reserved prefix values to notmuch concepts, (for example, 'G'
 * is documented as "newsGroup (or similar entity - e.g. a web forum
 * name)", for which I think the thread is the closest analogue in
 * notmuch. This in spite of the fact that we will eventually be
 * storing mailing-list messages where 'G' for "mailing list name"
 * might be even a closer analogue. I'm treating the single-character
 * prefixes preferentially for core notmuch concepts (which will be
 * nearly universal to all mail messages).
