folder and path completely broken in HEAD?

Hey, I'm playing around with the head of the git repository (bc64cdce289d84be2550c4fccb1f008d15eaeb0e) to try to figure out how the new folder: prefixes work, as folders are a critical part of how I organize my mail. (Since tags are not hierarchical, folders are the best way for me to group mail t

What to people use for calendar invites?

2015-04-16 Thread dm-list-email-notmuch
I've been running into this issue lately where I agree to meet people and we say it's confirmed, but if don't send them a calendar invite of mime type text/calendar, then it's as if we never agreed and they don't show up. I get, "Oh, you never sent me a calendar invite so it wasn't in my calendar.

Enabling and disabling maildir.synchronize_flags

Tag timestamps and synchronization

One of the features I would like to see from notmuch is an easier ability to synchronize tags across machines. At the very least, I would need either incremental dump and restore, or some way to communicate arbitrary tags to a local imap server that shares notmuch's maildir (much as notmuch curren
