Neat, thanks Kevin for debugging the issue down to $pipe_decode (which I've never used, mutt never stops to amaze me :-)). > And apparently Mail::Internet errors out if there is no Message-ID. > (Which mentioned in the docs at CPAN…) > > Mystery solved. Right, but still a more graceful failure model would be nice. Please find attached a patch that in such cases should 1) give a supposedly nice error message explaining what's going on and 2) empty the results dir to avoid showing you unrelated results. It works for me. But extra checking never hurts, in particular for the tag action, which I don't personally use. I guess it would also be nice to actually disable $pipe_decode in the relevant Mutt macros, but I'm not sure about to do that without interfering with user desired configuration. Kevin: do you know if there is a common Mutt trick to store the value of a variable before changing it, and restoring it a posteriori? More isolation for this kind of things in Mutt would definitely be welcome...

notmuch-mutt: Notmuch (of a) helper for Mutt ============================================ notmuch-mutt provide integration among the [Mutt] [1] mail user agent and the [Notmuch] [2] mail indexer. notmuch-mutt offer two main integration features. The first one is the ability of stating a **search query interactively** and then jump to a fresh Maildir containing its search results only. The second one is the ability to **reconstruct threads on the fly** starting from the currently highlighted mail, which comes handy when a thread has been split across different maildirs, archived, or the like. notmuch-mutt enables to trigger mail searches via a Mutt macro (usually F8) and reconstruct threads via another (usually F9). Check the manpage for the 2-liner configuration snippet for your Mutt configuration files (~/.muttrc, /etc/Muttrc, or a /etc/Muttrc.d snippet). A [blog style introduction] [3] to notmuch-mutt is available and includes some more rationale for its existence. Arguably, some of the logics of notmuch-mutt could disappear by adding support for a --output=symlinks flag to notmuch.

Version fdupes-1.50-PR2 or higher is required. To *build* notmuch-mutt documentation you will need: - pod2man (coming with Perl) to generate the manpage - markdown to generate README.html out of this file License ------- notmuch-mutt is copyright (C) 2011-2012 Stefano Zacchiroli <zack@upsilon.cc>. notmuch-mutt is released under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL), version 3 or above.
