I installed notmuch from debian testing and it seems to work OK (from
the command line), e.g.
newmail at argo:~$ notmuch search blabla
thread:0001 Yest. 22:56 [1/1] fldsj at falma.de; blabla (inbox

Dear notmuch hackers and users,
After 10 years of using Gnus I am considering to replace it with
notmuch. On this occasion I would also like to make my e-mail-setup
distributed in a way which does not require any central infrastructure,
