|

|
|
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".

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.

.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.
