Starting with Emacs 27 undeclared variables in evaluated interactive code uses lexical scope. This includes code passed with '--eval' as we do in the Emacs tests, which also happen to assume dynamic scope. - This can affect variables defined by libraries that we use. We let-bind such variables to change the behavior of functions which we then call with these bindings in effect. If these libraries are not loaded beforehand, then the bindings are lexical and fail to have the effect we intended. At this time only 'smtpmail' has to be loaded explicitly (for the variables let-bound in emacs_deliver_message and emacs_fcc_message). 'message' doesn't have to be loaded explicitly, because loading 'notmuch' (in 'run_emacs') already takes care of that, indirectly. - Our own testing-only variables also have to be declared explicitly. We should have done that anyway, but because of how and where these variables are used it was very easy to overlook that (i.e. it isn't something the byte-compiler ever looks at). Not so in Emacs 27 anymore; here this oversight caused four tests to fail. The numeric values of these variables get incremented by functions that we add to hooks that are run by many tests, not just the tests where we actually inspect the value and therefore take care to let- bind the values to 0 before we begin. The global values therefore have to be numeric values as well. I have chosen -100 instead of 0 as the default in case someone writes a test that inspects the value but forgets to let-bind the value. I hope that the unusual negative value that one is going to see in such a case will help debugging the issue. |

Notmuch - thread-based email index, search and tagging. Notmuch is a system for indexing, searching, reading, and tagging large collections of email messages in maildir or mh format. It uses the Xapian library to provide fast, full-text search with a convenient search syntax. Notmuch is free software, released under the GNU General Public License version 3 (or later). Building notmuch ---------------- See the INSTALL file for notes on compiling and installing notmuch. Running notmuch --------------- After installing notmuch, start by running "notmuch setup" which will interactively prompt for configuration information such as your name, email address, and the directory which contains your mail archive to be indexed. You can change any answers later by running "notmuch setup" again or by editing the .notmuch-config file in your home directory. With notmuch configured you should next run "notmuch new" which will index all of your existing mail. This can take a long time, (several hours) if you have a lot of email, (hundreds of thousands of files). When new mail is delivered to your mail archive in the future, you will want to run "notmuch new" again. These runs will be much faster as they will only index new messages. Finally, you can prove to yourself that things are working by running some command-line searches such as "notmuch search from:someone@example.com" or "notmuch search subject:topic". See "notmuch help search-terms" for more details on the available search syntax. The command-line search output is not expected to be particularly friendly for day-to-day usage. Instead, it is expected that you will use an email interface that builds on the notmuch command-line tool or the libnotmuch library. Notmuch installs a full-featured email interface for use within emacs. To use this, first add the following line to your .emacs file: (autoload 'notmuch "notmuch" "Notmuch mail" t) Then, either run "emacs -f notmuch" or execute the command "M-x notmuch" from within a running emacs. If you're interested in a non-emacs-based interface to notmuch, then please join the notmuch community. Various other interfaces are already in progress, (an interface within vim, a curses interface, graphical interfaces based on evolution, and various web-based interfaces). The authors of these interfaces would love further testing or contribution. See contact information below.
