[notmuch] automatically assigning tags to new messages?
Dear notmuch crowd, I heard about notmuch mail a few days ago and I started playing with it. So far, it makes me very happy, but there are some things that I need to learn how to do. I'll start with the most important one: tagging incoming messages automatically. What is the recommended way of achieving this? There is a variety of things that I would like to automatically do to incoming mail: - if it comes from a mailing list (e.g. notmuch), tag it +notmuch and +unread, but not +inbox - if it's one of the numerous pointless weekly newsletters that I'm getting from my university, tag it +unimelb, but not +unread or +inbox - if it is coming from me, tag it +sent, but not +unread or +inbox There's probably more, but this is a good start. Any advice? [My current email setup is as follows: get messages from the Gmail account using fetchmail; run procmail with a bunch of recipes that put the messages into various maildirs; read the results with mutt.

[notmuch] keeping a copy of sent mail locally
Hello, Many thanks to Marten and Carl for the advice on using scripts for assigning tags automatically. It works like a charm. The next hurdle seems to be dealing with sent mail. I would like each message that I send to be saved in my local mail folder and treated the same as all my other messages -- so it will get indexed and put in the right thread, etc. (For example, right now the thread that started with my question about automatic tags only has the two replies in it, and its subject is "Re: [notmuch] automatically...") Bcc-ing myself on every sent message is suboptimal for a number of reasons: (1) gmail throws away the bcc-ed copy since it has the same message id as the one sitting in the gmail sent mail, and so the bcc-ed copy never makes it back to my local mail; (2) even if this was working, it would be an unnecessary waste of bandwidth. After looking around for a little bit, the only other option I could see was to use the FCC mail header. Unfortunately this wants a filename to save to (rather than just a directory); so I have to manually add the FCC: header, put in a filename that doesn't yet exist, type 'y' to confirm that I want the file to be created. It would be great if I could just set the directory where sent mail should go to as a global option, and then everything would happen automatically without any more effort from me. I realise that this is more of an emacs question than a notmuch question, but I'm hoping that somebody on this list has an elegant solution to this.

The problem seems to be in the way I'm working with the emacs "Message" mode. Namely, Bcc works fine when I *reply* to a message from notmuch in emacs: while composing the reply I see the automatically added Bcc header, and after sending through gmail and getting the new mail via POP I get the message back. However, if I'm using notmuch in emacs and press 'm' to compose a new message, then the Bcc header is not added automatically and I guess it's not surprising that the rest doesn't work as expected. So where is the difference between 'm' and 'r' coming from? I have (setq mail-self-blind t) in my .emacs, and I thought that should take care of things, but it obviously doesn't.

Good. So we can put this in notmuch.el and Keith will get everybody's
sent mail. :)
It looks like we need a way to get the primary email address from the
config file. Actually, while we're at it, we can consider making this
more flexible and adding a new option to the config file (e.g. bcc=...)
which would take a semicolon-separated list of email addresses (in case
someone wants to always bcc an address other than the primary one).
Is there a nice clean way of getting the config variables in notmuch.el?
Or should this go into a new file notmuch-compose.c? Note that the
latter would imply having a new command like "notmuch compose".
Ah, I just realised there's another issue related to the fact that 'm'
immediately defers to Message mode while 'r' does some preprocessing:
after pressing 'r', various headers are set in the appropriate manner
(From:, for instance, using the user name and email address from the
config file). If you press 'm', you would get something like
From: ghitza@artin.i-did-not-set--mail-host-address--so-tickle-me
due to the fact that Message mode doesn't know the name or the email
address. This can be fixed by adding to .emacs something like
(setq user-full-name "Alex Ghitza")
(setq user-mail-address "aghitza at gmail.com")
It's not a big deal, but now the same thing must be set in two different
places (.notmuch-config and .emacs), and can lead to confusion if, say,
the user changes their primary email address in one place but forgets it
needs to also be changed in the other. So I guess I would prefer it if
notmuch would do a very minimal amount of preprocessing before heading
into Message mode when composing mail. In fact, we could make sure that
there is consistent behaviour between 'm' and 'r' by making "notmuch
compose" return a few preset headers (From:, Bcc:, whatever else is
deemed appropriate), and making "notmuch reply" call "notmuch compose"
first and then add the reply-specific content.
Sorry about writing a lot of prose and no code! I'd like to get a sense
for people's reactions before trying to write a patch for this.
Best,
Alex

Undo tag operation?
Dear notmuch folks, I just inadvertently removed the "todo" tag from all my "todo"-tagged emails (about 60 of them going back several months, so I doubt I can find them all again in my email haystack). So I have a few questions: 1. Is there currently an easy way to undo this? 2. Is there currently a complicated, maybe-won't-work way to undo this? I have not touched the emacs instance, nor the notmuch database, since the incident, if that helps. 3. If the answers to both 1 and 2 are "no" (which is what I expect), should notmuch itself (or the emacs frontend) have an undo possibility?

[Announce] notmuch release 0.2 now available
Hi, I'm not sure whether replying to the announcement email is the appropriate way to report building and testing results, but here goes. notmuch-0.2 built fine, but one test failed during 'make test'. I have put the indicated directory up at http://aghitza.org/files/test.16707 with a tarred version at http://aghitza.org/files/test.16707.tar The machine and distribution are Linux artin 2.6.33-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Apr 4 10:27:30 CEST 2010 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T9300 @ 2.50GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux It would seem that I have libxapian-1.1, and gmime-2.4.15. As an academic, when I see a test grade of 49/50, I think "pretty damn good", so I'm using 0.2 anyway :). So far it's great, I'll report if I have any trouble. Thanks to everybody who contributed to 0.2! Best, Alex -- Alex Ghitza -- http://aghitza.org/ Lecturer in Mathematics -- The University of Melbourne -- Australia

Sure enough, with 0.3 I get "All 77 tests passed". Excellent! Best, Alex -- Alex Ghitza -- http://aghitza.org/ Lecturer in Mathematics -- The University of Melbourne -- Australia
Undo tag operation?
Dear notmuch folks, I just inadvertently removed the "todo" tag from all my "todo"-tagged emails (about 60 of them going back several months, so I doubt I can find them all again in my email haystack). So I have a few questions: 1. Is there currently an easy way to undo this? 2. Is there currently a complicated, maybe-won't-work way to undo this? I have not touched the emacs instance, nor the notmuch database, since the incident, if that helps. 3. If the answers to both 1 and 2 are "no" (which is what I expect), should notmuch itself (or the emacs frontend) have an undo possibility?

[ANN] New awesome vim plug-in using Ruby bindings
Hi Felipe, On Thu, Apr 26, 2012 at 8:29 AM, Felipe Contreras wrote: > In case anybody is interested, here's a screencast showing some of the > features :) > http://youtu.be/JGD7IbZmnIs This looks great, but I can't seem to be able to get it to work on my machine. I have put notmuch-ruby.vim alongside notmuch.vim inside .vim/plugin, and the .vim/syntax/notmuch-* files are there as well. If I do vim -c ':NotMuch' I can get into the normal vim frontend for notmuch, but if I try vim -c ':NotMuchR' all I get is an error message: Error detected while processing command line: E492: Not an editor command: :NotMuchR Sorry about the completely noob question, but I've been unsuccessfully trying to get this to work for a while now and I have run out of ideas. I'm of course happy to provide whatever information would help get to the bottom of this. -- Best, Alex -- Alex Ghitza -- Lecturer in Mathematics -- The University of Melbourne http://aghitza.org

Maybe you are doing 'source ~/.vim/plugin/notmuch.vim' directly > in your .vimrc, if so, you can try to do the same with notmuch vim > ruby. What I have is 'filetype plugin on'. After banging my head against the wall a bit more, I realised what should have been obvious from the beginning: I need to have vim built with ruby support. So after grabbing the vim source and ./configure --enable-rubyinterp I am now happily writing this from notmuch-ruby. As obvious as this should have been, do you think it deserves a short sentence at the top of the == install == section of your README? -- Best, Alex Alex Ghitza -- http://aghitza.org/ Lecturer in Mathematics -- The University of Melbourne -- Australia
