Previously this was just a message that was almost impossible for the
user to see. Now, the user gets to see the error message, and is
presented with a buffer that actually contains the Fcc header of
interest.
We want to be able to correctly guess the best From: header to use when
replying to emails. This is what we are looking at now:
1 is one of the users' mail addresses in the To: or Cc: header
2 check for an Envelope-to: header
3 check for an X-Original-To: header
4 check for a (for <email@add.res>) clause in Received: headers
5 check for the domain part of known email addresses in the
'by' part of Received headers
6 fall back to the primary email address
This patch changes the algorithm for steps 2-5 of this process. Prior to
this patch we had a first attempt to implement only step 5 - but this
broke in many email setups where mail delivery to the local machine added
additional Received: lines.
Steps 2-4 are new, step 5 now analyzes the concatenated Received: header
(this was in the previous patch) to do this analysis.

With this patch the Received: header becomes special in the way
we treat headers - this is the only header for which we concatenate
all the instances we find (instead of just returning the first one).
This will be used in the From guessing code for replies as we need to
be able to walk ALL of the Received: headers in a message to have a
good chance to guess which mailbox this email was delivered to.

I have gone wild and added a defcustom "notmuch-fcc-dirs".
Depending on the value of that variable we will not do any
maildir fcc at all (nil, the default), or it is of the format
(("defaultsentbox")
("full name <email@address>" . "Work/sentbox")
("full name2 <email2@address2>" . "Work2/sentbox"))
The outbox name will be concatenated with the message mode
variable "message-directory" which is "~/Mail/" by default.

1)use insert-buffer-substring
Rather than the insert-buffer. Emacs complains that it is for interactive use
and not for use within elisp. So use insert-buffer-substring which does the
same thing when not handed any 'begin' 'end' parameters.
2)replace caddr with (car (cdr (cdr)))
The former requires 'cl to be loaded and during make install emacs complained
about not knowing it.

This patch only addresses the typical Outlook/Exchange case
where we have "Last, First" <first.last@company.com> or
"Last, First MI" <first.mi.last@company.com>.
In the future we should be more fexible as to the formats
we recognize, but for now we address this one as it is the
Exchange default setting and therefore the most common one.

When displaying threads as result of a search it makes sense to list those
authors first who match the search. The matching authors are separated from the
non-matching ones with a '|' instead of a ','
Imagine the default "+inbox" query. Those mails in the thread that
match the query are actually "new" (whatever that means). And some
people seem to think that it would be much better to see those author
names first. For example, imagine a long and drawn out thread that once
was started by me; you have long read the older part of the thread and
removed the inbox tag. Whenever a new email comes in on this thread,
prior to this patch the author column in the search display will first show
"Dirk Hohndel" - I think it should first show the actual author(s) of the new
mail(s).

This variable was moved from notmuch.el to notmuch-lib.el some time
ago, but the declaration in notmuch.el was left around. Clean that up.

The notmuch-hello functionality is now sufficiently useful that we
want to make it the default view of notmuch for new users. This also
effectively hides the "hello" name from the user, so we'll be free to
change that in the implementation if necessary.
This change also shuffles the requires between notmuch.el and
notmuch-hello.el. This fixes things so that our documented (require
'notmuch) is sufficient for getting the notmuch-hello functionality.
Finally, the shuffling caused the notmuch-search-oldest-first variable
from one file to the other. While doing that, give this variable the
defcustom treatment for easier customization.
When determining whether or not to re-align the head of the current
message with the top of the window, use `count-screen-lines' rather
than `count-lines' to allow for invisible text in the preceding
message. When comparing that number of lines against
`next-screen-context-lines', realign if the number of lines of the
previous message visible is 'smaller than or equal to' rather than
just 'smaller than' to improve usability.
For composing new messages and forwarding, leave the cursor on the
'To:' field. For replies, leave the cursor at the start of the
body. In all cases, mark the buffer as not modified so that the user
is not prompted if she decides to immediately kill the buffer.
Add:
- notmuch-wash-wrap-long-lines: Wrap lines longer than the width of
the current window whilst maintaining any citation prefix.
- notmuch-wash-tidy-citations: Tidy up citations by:
- compress repeated otherwise blank citation lines,
- remove otherwise blank citation lines at the head and tail of a
citation,
- notmuch-wash-elide-blank-lines: Compress repeated blank lines and
remove leading and trailing blank lines.
None of these is enabled by default - add them to
`notmuch-show-insert-text/plain-hook' to use.
Reviewed-by: Carl Worth <cworth@cworth.org>: I previously committed a

"notmuch-address.el" tries to be careful to insinuate itself into
message mode only if it will do something useful, so it's safe to load
it all of the time.
Set `buffer-invisibility-spec' to `nil' (a list) if it is just `t'
before inserting any body parts, otherwise removing items from
`buffer-invisibility-spec' (which is what
`notmuch-show-headers-visible' and `notmuch-show-message-visible' do)
is a no-op and has no effect. This caused threads with only matching
messages to have those messages hidden initially because
`buffer-invisibility-spec' stayed `t'.
Avoiding adding the same search string to the 'recent searches' list
more than once by testing whether the string was already used with
`member' rather than `memq'.
The notmuch logo uses transparency. That can display poorly when
inserting the image into an emacs buffer (black logo on a black
background), so force the background colour of the image. We use a
face (`notmuch-hello-logo-background') to represent the colour so that
`defface' can be used to declare the different possible colours, which
depend on whether the frame has a light or dark background.
We can't fit all the authors and the various changed subjects in 80
columns, but it would be great is isearch could still find these, (and
automatically expand the hidden content as necessary).
Add:
- notmuch-wash-wrap-long-lines: Wrap lines longer than the width of
the current window whilst maintaining any citation prefix.
- notmuch-wash-tidy-citations: Tidy up citations by:
- compress repeated otherwise blank citation lines,
- remove otherwise blank citation lines at the head and tail of a
citation and remove blank lines between attribution statements and
the citation,
- notmuch-wash-compress-blanks: Compress repeated blank lines and
remove leading and trailing blank lines.
Enable `notmuch-wash-tidy-citations' and
`notmuch-wash-compress-blanks' by default by adding them to
`notmuch-show-insert-text/plain-hook'. `notmuch-wash-wrap-long-lines'
is not enabled by default.
If `notmuch-wash-wrap-long-lines' is enabled, word wrapping of the
buffer leads to an unappealing display of text, so provide a function
to disable it and add it to the list of `notmuch-show-mode' hook
functions.
Add an `isearch-open-invisible' property to the overlays used to hide
citations and signatures, together with an appropriate function to
leave the invisible text visible should that be required.
Our current approach is for top-level entry poitns in the library
to have try/catch blocks that catch any Xapian exception and print
a message. Add a few missing blocks and fix up the documentation.
Sebastian Spaeth reported [*] a segfault within libnotmuch when
running notmuch operations while an asyncronous offlineimap job had
removed some files from the mail store. Avoid this by handling all
cases where notmuch_message_get_header could return NULL.
[*] See message id:87d3xqti3o.fsf@SSpaeth.de on notmuch@notmuchmail.org
This seems a rather unlikely case, (replying to a message that
disappears out from under us half way through the reply), but
notmuch_message_get_header is documented to return NULL in error
cases, so we might as well deal sanely with that (rather than just
crashing).
This isn't ideal for me personally, since I usually want to inovke a
saved search rather than entering a new search textually. But it's at
least better than just putting point in the upper-left corner where it
doesn't do anything.
And similarly for notmuch-show-headers-visible to
notmuch-message-headers-visible.
I've never liked notmuch-show as a namespace prefix, but it looks
especially bad when it appears as "Notmuch Show Headers Visible" in
the customize buffer. Give nicer names to these variables which are
exported for user manipulation.
A tool `notmuch-addresses' is required to produce addresses which
match a query string. An example of a suitable script can be found in
the git repository at

There are no doubt others.
The function was named and documented incorrectly before, saying that
it would "change the visibility of all messages". Instead it only
opens the messages that are closed---it doesn't simultanesously close
the messages that are open. (Granted, nobody would *want* that
behavior I don't think, but the naming was confusing before.)
`notmuch-show-toggle-all' changes the visibility all of the messages
in the current thread. By default it makes all of the messages
visible. With a prefix argument, it makes them all not visible.
