SYNOPSIS
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
**notmuch** **reply** [option ...] <*search-term*> ...
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
Constructs a reply template for a set of messages.
|
|
|
|
To make replying to email easier, **notmuch reply** takes an existing
|
|
set of messages and constructs a suitable mail template. The Reply-to:
|
|
header (if any, otherwise From:) is used for the To: address. Unless
|
|
``--reply-to=sender`` is specified, values from the To: and Cc: headers
|
|
are copied, but not including any of the current user's email addresses
|
|
(as configured in primary\_mail or other\_email in the .notmuch-config
|
|
file) in the recipient list.
|
|
|
|
It also builds a suitable new subject, including Re: at the front (if
|
|
not already present), and adding the message IDs of the messages being
|
|
replied to to the References list and setting the In-Reply-To: field
|
|
correctly.
|
|
|
|
Finally, the original contents of the emails are quoted by prefixing
|
|
each line with '> ' and included in the body.
|
|
|
|
The resulting message template is output to stdout.
|
|
|
|
Supported options for **reply** include
|
|
|
|
``--format=``\ (**default**\ \|\ **json**\ \|\ **sexp**\ \|\ **headers-only**)
|
|
|
|
**default**
|
|
Includes subject and quoted message body as an RFC 2822
|
|
message.
|
|
|
|
**json**
|
|
Produces JSON output containing headers for a reply message
|
|
and the contents of the original message. This output can be
|
|
used by a client to create a reply message intelligently.
|
|
|
|
**sexp**
|
|
Produces S-Expression output containing headers for a reply
|
|
message and the contents of the original message. This
|
|
output can be used by a client to create a reply message
|
|
intelligently.
|
|
|
|
**headers-only**
|
|
Only produces In-Reply-To, References, To, Cc, and Bcc
|
|
headers.
|
|
|
|
``--format-version=N``
|
|
Use the specified structured output format version. This is
|
|
intended for programs that invoke **notmuch(1)** internally. If
|
|
omitted, the latest supported version will be used.
|
|
|
|
``--reply-to=``\ (**all**\ \|\ **sender**)
|
|
|
|
**all** (default)
|
|
Replies to all addresses.
|
|
|
|
**sender**
|
|
Replies only to the sender. If replying to user's own
|
|
message (Reply-to: or From: header is one of the user's
|
|
configured email addresses), try To:, Cc:, and Bcc: headers
|
|
in this order, and copy values from the first that contains
|
|
something other than only the user's addresses.
|
|
|
|
``--decrypt``
|
|
Decrypt any MIME encrypted parts found in the selected content
|
|
(ie. "multipart/encrypted" parts). Status of the decryption will
|
|
be reported (currently only supported with --format=json and
|
|
--format=sexp) and on successful decryption the
|
|
multipart/encrypted part will be replaced by the decrypted
|
|
content.
|
|
|
|
Decryption expects a functioning **gpg-agent(1)** to provide any
|
|
needed credentials. Without one, the decryption will fail.
|
|
|
|
See **notmuch-search-terms(7)** for details of the supported syntax for
|
|
<search-terms>.
|
|
|
|
Note: It is most common to use **notmuch reply** with a search string
|
|
matching a single message, (such as id:<message-id>), but it can be
|
|
useful to reply to several messages at once. For example, when a series
|
|
of patches are sent in a single thread, replying to the entire thread
|
|
allows for the reply to comment on issues found in multiple patches. The
|
|
default format supports replying to multiple messages at once, but the
|
|
JSON and S-Expression formats do not.
|
|
|
|
EXIT STATUS
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
This command supports the following special exit status codes
|
|
|
|
``20``
|
|
The requested format version is too old.
|
|
|
|
``21``
|
|
The requested format version is too new.
