In some cases (e.g. when building a publicly-visible e-mail archive)
it doesn't make any sense to restrict visibility of the message to the
current user account.
This adds a --world-readable boolean option for "notmuch insert", so
that those who want to archive their mail publicly can feed their
archiver with:
notmuch insert --world-readable
Other local delivery agents (postfix's local, and dovecot's lda) all
default to delivery in mode 0600 rather than relying on the user's
umask, so this fix doesn't change the default.
Also, this does not override the user's umask. if the umask is
already set tight, it will not become looser as the result of passing
--world-readable.

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.
|
|
|
|
The **insert** command supports hooks. See **notmuch-hooks(5)** for
|
|
more details on hooks.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
``--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 indicate
|
|
successful mail delivery.
|
|
|
|
``--no-hooks``
|
|
Prevent hooks from being run.
|
|
|
|
``--world-readable``
|
|
When writing mail to the mailbox, allow it to be read by users
|
|
other than the current user. Note that this does not override
|
|
umask. By default, delivered mail is only readable by the current
|
|
user.
|
|
|
|
``--decrypt=(true|nostash|auto|false)``
|
|
If ``true`` and the message is encrypted, try to decrypt the
|
|
message while indexing, stashing any session keys discovered. 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 the cleartext itself. Either way, the message
|
|
is always stored to disk in its original form (ciphertext).
|
|
|
|
``nostash`` is the same as ``true`` except that it will not stash
|
|
newly-discovered session keys in the database.
|
|
|
|
Be aware that the index is likely sufficient (and a stashed
|
|
session key is certainly sufficient) to reconstruct the cleartext
|
|
of the message itself, so please ensure that the notmuch message
|
|
index is adequately protected. DO NOT USE ``--decrypt=true`` or
|
|
``--decrypt=nostash`` without considering the security of your
|
|
index.
|
|
|
|
See also ``index.decrypt`` in **notmuch-config(1)**.
|
|
|
|
EXIT STATUS
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
This command returns exit status 0 on successful mail delivery,
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
This command supports the following special exit status code for
|
|
errors most likely to be temporary in nature, e.g. failure to get a
|
|
database write lock.
|
|
|
|
``75 (EX_TEMPFAIL)``
|
|
A temporary failure occurred; the user is invited to retry.
|
|
|
|
The exit status of the **post-insert** hook does not affect the exit
|
|
status of the **insert** command.
