notmuch-insert
==============
SYNOPSIS
========
**notmuch** **insert** [option ...] [+<*tag*>|-<*tag*> ...]
DESCRIPTION
===========
**notmuch insert** reads a message from standard input and delivers it
into the maildir directory given by configuration option
**database.path**, then incorporates the message into the notmuch
database. It is an alternative to using a separate tool to deliver the
message then running **notmuch new** afterwards.
The new message will be tagged with the tags specified by the
**new.tags** configuration option, then by operations specified on the
command-line: tags prefixed by '+' are added while those prefixed by '-'
are removed.
If the new message is a duplicate of an existing message in the database
(it has same Message-ID), it will be added to the maildir folder and
notmuch database, but the tags will not be changed.
cli/insert: add post-insert hook The post-new hook might no longer be needed or run very often if notmuch insert is being used. Therefore a post-insert hook is needed (arguably pre-insert not so much, so don't add one). Also add the --no-hooks option to skip hooks.
2014-09-28 16:40:59 +02:00
The **insert** command supports hooks. See **notmuch-hooks(5)** for
more details on hooks.

2014-01-28 17:12:37 +01:00
Option arguments must appear before any tag operation arguments.
Supported options for **insert** include
``--folder=<``\ folder\ **>**
Deliver the message to the specified folder, relative to the
top-level directory given by the value of **database.path**. The
cli: allow empty strings for notmuch insert --folder argument Now that it's easy to add argument specific modifiers in opt descriptions, add a new .allow_empty field to allow empty strings for individual string arguments while retaining strict checks elsewhere. Use this for notmuch insert --folder, where the empty string means top level folder.
2017-10-14 15:15:43 +02:00
default is the empty string, which means delivering to the
top-level directory.

``--create-folder``
Try to create the folder named by the ``--folder`` option, if it
does not exist. Otherwise the folder must already exist for mail
delivery to succeed.
cli/insert: require succesful message indexing for success status Add --keep option to keep any remaining stuff in index or file. We could distinguish between failures to index and failures to apply tags or maildir sync, but for simplicity just have one.
2014-10-03 23:18:59 +02:00
``--keep``
Keep the message file if indexing fails, and keep the message
indexed if applying tags or maildir flag synchronization
fails. Ignore these errors and return exit status 0 to

If ``true`` and the message is encrypted, try to decrypt the
message while indexing. If ``auto``, and notmuch already
knows about a session key for the message, it will try
decrypting using that session key but will not try to access
the user's secret keys. If decryption is successful, index

indexing: Change from try_decrypt to decrypt the command-line interface for indexing (reindex, new, insert) used --try-decrypt; and the configuration records used index.try_decrypt. But by comparison with "show" and "reply", there doesn't seem to be any reason for the "try" prefix. This changeset adjusts the command-line interface and the configuration interface. For the moment, i've left indexopts_{set,get}_try_decrypt alone. The subsequent changeset will address those.

non-zero otherwise. The default is to indicate failed mail delivery on
any errors, including message file delivery to the filesystem, message
indexing to Notmuch database, changing tags, and synchronizing tags to
maildir flags. The ``--keep`` option may be used to settle for
successful message file delivery.

errors most likely to be temporary in nature, e.g. failure to get a
database write lock.

The exit status of the **post-insert** hook does not affect the exit
status of the **insert** command.
