.TH NOTMUCH-REPLY 1 2012-08-20 "Notmuch 0.14"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
notmuch-reply \- constructs a reply template for a set of messages
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
.B notmuch reply
|
|
.RI "[" options "...] <" search-term ">..."
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Constructs a reply template for a set of messages.
|
|
|
|
To make replying to email easier,
|
|
.B 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
|
|
.BR \-\-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
|
|
.B reply
|
|
include
|

|
.BR \-\-format= ( default | json | sexp | headers\-only )
|
|
.RS
|
|
.TP 4
|
|
.BR default
|
|
Includes subject and quoted message body.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR 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.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR 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.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR headers\-only
|
|
Only produces In\-Reply\-To, References, To, Cc, and Bcc headers.

.BR \-\-format-version=N
|
|
|
|
Use the specified structured output format version. This is intended
|
|
for programs that invoke \fBnotmuch\fR(1) internally. If omitted, the
|
|
latest supported version will be used.
|

|
|
.BR \-\-reply\-to= ( all | sender )
|
|
.RS
|
|
.TP 4
|
|
.BR all " (default)"
|
|
Replies to all addresses.
|
|
.TP 4
|
|
.BR 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.

.B \-\-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 the multipart/encrypted part will be replaced by the decrypted
|
|
content.
|
|
.RE
|
|
|
|
See \fBnotmuch-search-terms\fR(7)
|
|
for details of the supported syntax for <search-terms>.
|
|
|
|
Note: It is most common to use
|
|
.B "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.
