Before being distracted again, the impression I got from reading Anjal was
that to integrate with it, you needed to understand evolution-data-server
and camel. Anjal itself seems to be a relatively thin message/folder
viewer and composer, with the details hidden behind camel. So the next
step, I felt, would be to see whether you could write a notmuch data store
for evolution.

While discussing notmuch with some of the gnome developers they pointed
me to http://live.gnome.org/Anjal/ . The interface is suited to the way
notmuch displays threads. So i guess it would really cool if we can get
anjal to use nomuch as one of the backend.

That should also make sure you get a working mailclient in gtk with
minimal changes

Thanks for mentioning this, Aneesh.

Hooking up Anjal to notmuch was an idea that Chris Wilson had almost
immediately after playing with notmuch. I think he even started poking
around in the Anjal code base to see how much work this would be.

Chris, did you make any progress worth mentioning in your
investigations?

I created them now at http://baruch.github.com/notmuch-gtk

They are not pretty and not meant to be, I'm currently just tracing out 
the client to get it somewhat functional as a mail client. The niceties 
will come once I actually get to use it as properly.

Hi,

I added a quick hack to show a message thread in notmuch-gtk and this 
makes it semi-usable. I don't actually parse the reply of notmuch-show 
but it's already passably usable to read mail.
