By default, notmuch won't try to decrypt on indexing. With this patch, we make it possible to indicate a per-database preference using the config variable "index.try_decrypt", which by default will be false. At indexing time, the database needs some way to know its internal defaults for how to index encrypted parts. It shouldn't be contingent on an external config file (since that can't be retrieved from the database object itself), so we store it in the database. This behaves similarly to the query.* configurations, which are also stored in the database itself, so we're not introducing any new dependencies by requiring that it be stored in the database.

DESCRIPTION
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
Several notmuch commands can search for, modify, add or remove
|
|
properties associated with specific messages. Properties are
|
|
key/value pairs, and a message can have more than one key/value pair
|
|
for the same key.
|
|
|
|
While users can select based on a specific property in their search
|
|
terms with the prefix **property:**, the notmuch command-line
|
|
interface does not provide mechanisms for modifying properties
|
|
directly to the user.
|
|
|
|
Instead, message properties are expected to be set and used
|
|
programmatically, according to logic in notmuch itself, or in
|
|
extensions to it.
|
|
|
|
Extensions to notmuch which make use of properties are encouraged to
|
|
report the specific properties used to the upstream notmuch project,
|
|
as a way of avoiding collisions in the property namespace.
|
|
|
|
CONVENTIONS
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
Any property with a key that starts with "index." will be removed (and
|
|
possibly re-set) upon reindexing (see **notmuch-reindex(1)**).
|
|
|
|
MESSAGE PROPERTIES
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
The following properties are set by notmuch internally in the course
|
|
of its normal activity.
|
|
|
|
**index.decryption**
|
|
|
|
If a message contains encrypted content, and notmuch tries to
|
|
decrypt that content during indexing, it will add the property
|
|
``index.decryption=success`` when the cleartext was successfully
|
|
indexed. If notmuch attempts to decrypt any part of a message
|
|
during indexing and that decryption attempt fails, it will add the
|
|
property ``index.decryption=failure`` to the message.
|
|
|
|
Note that it's possible for a single message to have both
|
|
``index.decryption=success`` and ``index.decryption=failure``.
|
|
Consider an encrypted e-mail message that contains another
|
|
encrypted e-mail message as an attachment -- if the outer message
|
|
can be decrypted, but the attached part cannot, then both
|
|
properties will be set on the message as a whole.
|
|
|
|
If notmuch never tried to decrypt an encrypted message during
|
|
indexing (which is the default, see ``index.try_decrypt`` in
|
|
**notmuch-config(1)**), then this property will not be set on that
|
|
message.
