I use notmuch-emacs, and frequently pipe message parts (attachments)
into pipelines with ". |" (that is, the dot key on my keyboard, followed
by the pipe key on my keyboard) while the cursor is over the button
representing the attachment.

If any of your tools can work in a pipeline (e.g. "pdftotext - -"), you
could try that, but i don't know how to feed the output of the pipeline
into emacspeak.

hope this helps,

converting attachments to text

[Bart Bunting]

Hi,

Just looking for some pointers.

I have to deal with quite a few emails with attachments in either pdf or
word format.

I'm on a mac so can use applescript or something pdftotext or similar to
convert them to text.

I'm blind so use emacspeak as my primary interface.  Having an easy way
to convert the notmuch attachments to text other than saving to a file
and processing them would greatly speed up my workflow.

Is there something in existance already to do this sort of thing?

I have a little rudimentary lisp skill so can hack something up if
someone can give me some pointers on a direction to head in.

Any advice appreciated.

Kind regards

Bart

Kind regards
Bart

Announcing Astroid v0.7

[Gaute Hope]

Greetings,

Astroid (https://github.com/astroidmail/astroid) v0.7 is now ready!

 Astroid is a lightweight and fast graphical threads-with-tags email
 client for notmuch. Written in C++ using GTK+, WebKit and gmime.


Astroid can be found at: https://github.com/astroidmail/astroid :

$ git clone https://github.com/astroidmail/astroid.git


## README with screenshot and information on building and usage:

   https://github.com/astroidmail/astroid#astroid-mua

 once you get Astroid running press '?' to get a list of keybindings
 for the current context.

## Tour and usage

 https://github.com/astroidmail/astroid/wiki

## Changes since v0.6

* Edit drafts using an external editor (optional).

* Filter thread-index incrementally using 'C-f'.

* Messages are marked unread after a delay (default 2 sec) in
 thread-view. They can be manually toggled with 'N'.

* Use Tab and S-Tab to jump between unread messages in thread-view.

* Yank raw or decoded message or element to primary clipboard with 'Y'
 or 'y', useful for applying patches.


* Yank the Message-ID to the primary clipboard with C-y.

* Make id:Message-ID urls clickable.

* Make Message-ID customizable, and User-Agent optional. These may also
 be customized with a plugin.

* Use Boost::log for logging.
* Some hints about usage are shown (level of detail can be configured)
* 'c' in thread-view composes message to sender (or receiver if sender
   is you).
* Taeer Bar-Yam : Allow any key name defined by GDK to
 be entered.

* Thread-view: '*' toggle 'flagged' on message, 'a' toggle inbox on
 whole thread.

* Removed MathJax support, since it is not widely used. Can be enabled
 manually by adding sourcing the script in the thread-view theme file.

* When replying, match encryption / signature level.
* Cancel sending with Ctrl + C.
* Open element with 'Space', also in editor.
* Check for missing fields and for attachment words before sending.
* Kim Ebert: Make sure all messages are loaded.
* M. Dietrich, G. Hope: Fix buggy quoting of arbitrarily spaced '>'s.
* Close thread-view after deleting draft.
* Hugo Roy: Improve attachment, mime-message, and url display.


Regards, Gaute

This file also works fine for me.

What version of notmuch, gmime, etc. are you using?

If I save the attached message and then add it to my database, it works
fine.

Could you share an exact copy of the failing message as a file
somewhere? It's possible that whatever is wrong with it was fixed during
the attach/detach process.

[PATCH] tests: add compatibility layer

[mp39590]

From: Mikhail 

Make test-lib-common.sh load test-lib-<$PLATFORM>.sh to create
additional shim for platform specifics.

Use test-lib-FREEBSD.sh to call GNU utilities instead of native ones.
