Hi there,
I'm a new notmuch/alot user, this is my first mail since I switched from
sup. Yes, switched. notmuch/alot works for me well enough now to be
usable.

I run Arch Linux. Here's some information for fellow Archers:
PKGBUILD for alot-git: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=54955
Should work just fine. If you want to help debug alot, change
_gitname=master to the name of the branch, build and install as usual.

You should currently avoid the alot PKGBUILD from AUR, it also points to
git and has some other mistakes. I'll see to it that it gets deleted and
maybe put a PKGBUILD with the release-version into its place.

Another little trap:
Arch doesn't supply a mailcap file, alot needs it for all those funky
html mails. As a solution until alot handles those mails better:
create ~/.mailcap
put the following line into it:
text/html; /usr/bin/lynx -dump '%s'; copiousoutput; description=HTML
Text; nametemplate=%s.html

Hope that helps,
thanks Patrick for writing alot, fixing bugs and helping with the
config.

Regards,
Philipp
