Status and Errors
|
||||
=================
|
||||
|
||||
Some methods return a status, indicating if an operation was successful and what the error was. Most of these status codes are expressed as a specific value, the :class:`notmuch.STATUS`.

||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
:exc:`NotmuchError` -- A Notmuch execution error
|
||||
------------------------------------------------
|
||||
Whenever an error occurs, we throw a special Exception:
