Adam Wolfe Gordon 3737ca6e26 emacs: Fix two bugs in reply
Bug 1: Replying from alternate addresses
----------------------------------------

The reply code was inconsistent in its use of symbols and strings for
header names being passed to message.el functions. This caused the
From header to be lookup up incorrectly, causing an additional From
header to be added with the user's primary address instead of the
correct alternate address.

This is fixed by using symbols everywhere, i.e. never using strings
for header names when interacting with message.el.

This change also removes our use of `mail-header`, since we don't use
it anywhere else, and using assq makes it clear how the header lists
are expected to work.

Bug 2: Duplicate headers in emacs 23.2
--------------------------------------

The message.el code in emacs 23.2 assumes that header names will
always be passed as symbols, so our use of strings caused
problems. The symptom was that on 23.2 (and presumably on earlier
versions) the reply message would end up with two of some headers.

Converting everything to symbols also fixes this issue.

Notmuch - thread-based email index, search and tagging.

Notmuch is a system for indexing, searching, reading, and tagging
large collections of email messages in maildir or mh format. It uses
the Xapian library to provide fast, full-text search with a convenient
search syntax.

Notmuch is free software, released under the GNU General Public
License version 3 (or later).

Building notmuch
----------------
See the INSTALL file for notes on compiling and installing notmuch.

Running notmuch
---------------
After installing notmuch, start by running "notmuch setup" which will
interactively prompt for configuration information such as your name,
email address, and the directory which contains your mail archive to
be indexed. You can change any answers later by running "notmuch
setup" again or by editing the .notmuch-config file in your home
directory.

With notmuch configured you should next run "notmuch new" which will
index all of your existing mail. This can take a long time, (several
hours) if you have a lot of email, (hundreds of thousands of
files). When new mail is delivered to your mail archive in the future,
you will want to run "notmuch new" again. These runs will be much
faster as they will only index new messages.

Finally, you can prove to yourself that things are working by running
some command-line searches such as "notmuch search
from:someone@example.com" or "notmuch search subject:topic". See
"notmuch help search-terms" for more details on the available search
syntax.

The command-line search output is not expected to be particularly
friendly for day-to-day usage. Instead, it is expected that you will
use an email interface that builds on the notmuch command-line tool or
the libnotmuch library.

Notmuch installs a full-featured email interface for use within
emacs. To use this, first add the following line to your .emacs file:

	(require 'notmuch)

Then, either run "emacs -f notmuch" or execute the command "M-x
notmuch" from within a running emacs.

If you're interested in a non-emacs-based interface to notmuch, then
please join the notmuch community. Various other interfaces are
already in progress, (an interface within vim, a curses interface,
graphical interfaces based on evolution, and various web-based
interfaces). The authors of these interfaces would love further
testing or contribution. See contact information below.
