Add --keep option to keep any remaining stuff in index or file. We could distinguish between failures to index and failures to apply tags or maildir sync, but for simplicity just have one.

SYNOPSIS
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
**notmuch** **insert** [option ...] [+<*tag*>|-<*tag*> ...]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
**notmuch insert** reads a message from standard input and delivers it
|
|
into the maildir directory given by configuration option
|
|
**database.path**, then incorporates the message into the notmuch
|
|
database. It is an alternative to using a separate tool to deliver the
|
|
message then running **notmuch new** afterwards.
|
|
|
|
The new message will be tagged with the tags specified by the
|
|
**new.tags** configuration option, then by operations specified on the
|
|
command-line: tags prefixed by '+' are added while those prefixed by '-'
|
|
are removed.
|
|
|
|
If the new message is a duplicate of an existing message in the database
|
|
(it has same Message-ID), it will be added to the maildir folder and
|
|
notmuch database, but the tags will not be changed.
|
|
|
|
Option arguments must appear before any tag operation arguments.
|
|
Supported options for **insert** include
|
|
|
|
``--folder=<``\ folder\ **>**
|
|
Deliver the message to the specified folder, relative to the
|
|
top-level directory given by the value of **database.path**. The
|
|
default is to deliver to the top-level directory.
|
|
|
|
``--create-folder``
|
|
Try to create the folder named by the ``--folder`` option, if it
|
|
does not exist. Otherwise the folder must already exist for mail
|
|
delivery to succeed.
|
|
|
|
``--keep``
|
|
Keep the message file if indexing fails, and keep the message
|
|
indexed if applying tags or maildir flag synchronization
|
|
fails. Ignore these errors and return exit status 0 to
|
|
indicate succesful mail delivery.
|
|
|
|
EXIT STATUS
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
This command returns exit status 0 on succesful mail delivery,
|
|
non-zero otherwise. The default is to indicate failed mail delivery on
|
|
any errors, including message file delivery to the filesystem, message
|
|
indexing to Notmuch database, changing tags, and synchronizing tags to
|
|
maildir flags. The ``--keep`` option may be used to settle for
|
|
successful message file delivery.
