Thank you for the suggestion, I've added ".Trash" to this list. As the
current messages will be deleted in about a week, it should be fine.

By the way, how will notmuch realize that the messages are no longer
there? Does it still scan the directory when it's in new.ignore?

Thanks again,

Alan

No, I think you'll have to do something manual like remove the directory
from the ignore list, move the directory out of the way, an re-run
notmuch new.

No, I think you'll have to do something manual like remove the directory
from the ignore list, move the directory out of the way, an re-run

One thing you can do is mark the trash folder to be ignored by 
notmuch new. See the new.ignore setting in man notmuch-config(1).

excluding files from a folder for searches

2014-07-16 Thread Alan Schmitt 
Hello,

I'm trying to configure notmuch such that it never searches for files in
my Trash folder. I have found in the configuration how to exclude some
tags from every search, but not how to exclude a folder.

Is it possible?

Thanks a lot,

Alan
