Correct. All four of those forms are giving you phrase searches, (so a term "org" followed immediately by a term "notmuch"). > a typical example of a matched message is the attached one. > Somehow the search matches the address of this very mailing list > in the body of the email (I assume). No, I don't think you are seeing a match on the mailing-list address itself, (which has "notmuch" two terms before "org"). > Therefore I wonder why notmuch matches 581 messages, not 16795 > messages or 77 messages. David showed you one example from the message you copied: > To: David Edmondson <d...@dme.org>, notmuch@notmuchmail.org And I showed one earlier in the thread. In each case, the message includes "org" followed (after some amount of punctuation and whitespace, perhaps including newlines) by "notmuch". -Carl
