.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.B notmuch insert
|
|
|
|
|
reads a message from standard input
|
|
|
|
|
and delivers it into the maildir directory given by configuration option
|
|
|
|
|
.BR 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
|
|
|
|
|
.B notmuch new
|
|
|
|
|
afterwards.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new message will be tagged with the tags specified by the
|
|
|
|
|
.B 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.
|
|

.SH EXIT STATUS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command returns exit status 0 if the message was successfully
|
|
|
|
|
added to the mail directory, even if the message could not be indexed
|
|
|
|
|
and added to the notmuch database. In the latter case, a warning will
|
|
|
|
|
be printed to standard error but the message file will be left on disk.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the message could not be written to disk then a non-zero exit
|
|
|
|
|
status is returned.
