The NAME section in manpages generally doesn't start with capital letter (unless the word is 'proper noun') and doesn't end with period. Notmuch manual pages now matches that "format".

.B database.path
|
|
The top-level directory where your mail currently exists and to where
|
|
mail will be delivered in the future. Files should be individual email
|
|
messages. Notmuch will store its database within a sub-directory of
|
|
the path configured here named
|
|
.BR ".notmuch".

.B new.ignore
|
|
A list of file and directory names, without path, that will not be
|
|
searched for messages by
|
|
.BR "notmuch new".
|
|
All the files and directories matching any of the names specified here
|
|
will be ignored, regardless of the location in the mail store
|
|
directory hierarchy.

.TP 4
|
|
.B search.exclude_tags

exclusion.

.B maildir.synchronize_flags
|
|
If true, then the following maildir flags (in message filenames) will
|
|
be synchronized with the corresponding notmuch tags:
|
|
|
|
Flag Tag
|
|
---- -------
|
|
D draft
|
|
F flagged
|
|
P passed
|
|
R replied
|
|
S unread (added when 'S' flag is not present)
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
.B notmuch new
|
|
command will notice flag changes in filenames and update tags, while
|
|
the
|
|
.B notmuch tag
|
|
and
|
|
.B notmuch restore
|
|
commands will notice tag changes and update flags in filenames.
|
|
|
|
If there have been any changes in the maildir (new messages added, old
|
|
ones removed or renamed, maildir flags changed, etc.), it is advisable
|
|
to run
|
|
.B notmuch new
|
|
before
|
|
.B notmuch tag
|
|
or
|
|
.B notmuch restore
|
|
commands to ensure the tag changes are properly synchronized to the
|
|
maildir flags, as the commands expect the database and maildir to be
|
|
in sync.
