Hello all, This may well be due to my novice use of search syntax, but I'm having issues find needle in haystack within the subject of an email thread. This simple example highlights the problem I'm having:
When using notmuch search subject:foo for threads with the following subjects... item: foo an item: foo an item: XYfoo1234 an item: XYfoo bar ... only the first two are found. Also: * notmuch searching for subject:"item: f" gives zero results. * notmuch searching for subject:"(*foo*)" results in the first two threads being found and also a thread with the word footprint in the middle of the subject being found (subject is "memory footprint without feature"). * notmuch searching for subject:"an item: XYfoo1234" results in the third being found. Why doesn't notmuch search subject:foo find all four threads, and why doesn't notmuch search subject:"item: f" find anything at all? This was spurred on by me having a thread with the following as the subject.. Release Update: BT52_ETW_MD4.5.4alpha1_take1 ..and notmuch search subject:4.5.4 finding nothing. Something doesn't seem right here. man notmuch-search-terms doesn't seem to explain this as far as I can see. FWIW I'm using notmuch from git, master @ 294bb6d. Any thoughts / tips? Thanks, -- Matt
