Thanks, I do use queries for some things. I anyhow have a tagging script to do the initial tagging (also does some relatively naive spam removal, archiving of older messages, kill lists etc). Complicated queries just split the config in two then, some logic would be in the tagging script and other things in the config, which I find personally a step back rather than an improvement. Especially as I will have to archive the inboxes at one point or another, making the folder query fail (or me having to specify the archive dir in the folder query as well). Out of interest, how does your workflow look like? All based on folder queries?

Well, for starters folders may change (say archiving those on the imap side), the semantic tags do not. Second, I let notmuch index multiple email addresses in the same store, meaning my folder queries are then nested rather deep. So my lovely tag:python query amounts to `notmuch search 'folder:reto@labrat.space/INBOX.lists.python-list'` Which... is a mouthful. Regexes aren't a solution, just makes it now two problems as I have multiple python lists that could match ;) Cheers, Reto PS: not op, but also re-tagging even though I have emails filtered to dedicated folders via sieve. ___ notmuch mailing list -- notmuch@notmuchmail.org To unsubscribe send an email to notmuch-le...@notmuchmail.org

I have a very similar setup, and used to have custom filters for afew, but eventually replaced it with a much simpler standalone script. It’s available online at [0]. For some junk residing in my dotfiles, it’s surprisingly well documented, but if you don’t understand something just hmu. I should probably rewrite it to the new python bindings … later … --Thomas [0]: https://github.com/qsuscs/.dotfiles/blob/7aa3b36e8e43ad0e928eddb60317a77e4bedd0a1/dot.local-bin-nm--tagger ___ notmuch mailing list -- notmuch@notmuchmail.org To unsubscribe send an email to notmuch-le...@notmuchmail.org

The question one can make based on the other reply is why tag based on folders, and just not use folder queries finding the mails in these folders. It is kinda duplicate information to have mail tagged with same name as the folder it is located in... but there may be reasons one would like to do such a thing -- and at least I am interested (at least a bit) why.
