you
can see this with:
notmuch search --output=files id:$MESSAGEID
Indeed - with the command line tool in this form, I do see both files.
Read

I'd prefer to have both, but if I have to pick one or the other, I'd
actually prefer to have the second one, as I'd then have
[ pdp ]
as the start of the subject header for ALL mails to that list, and as
an
added bonus, afew (should?) then tag them with the list name making
them
easily searchable.
I'd recommend doing your tagging based on something other than a
substring of the subject line -- wouldn't tagging based on the
recipient
of the message (To: or Cc:) be sufficient to group your mailing list
messages under one heading, regardless of which variant notmuch
chooses
to prefer?
So here’s the deal : I am tagging with afew, it has a special mailing
list filter,
which does the right thing - it tags the copy that was delivered from
the mailing
list with the list name. However (and maybe this is just the Emacs
interface?) when
I view the message in notmuch-emacs, it only shows one of them, and this
seems to be
(always? at least usually) the copy that is Fcc’d to my sent folder
and tagged only
with “sent” because it doesn’t have a list-id yet.
So I’m still looking for how to do this “right”. I must not be
the only one that sends
mails to mailing lists?
