 an insurmountable problem, but my patch certainly doesn't handle it
 correctly.

I'll keep that in mind, but lack of time, won't probably let me play
with it...

 There are also several other solutions to mute tags around.  For
 example, some people use a post-new hook to search for threads that
 contain at least one mute tag and then feed these thread IDs back in
 to notmuch tag to add the mute tag to everything in the thread.  I
 believe this is also the approach used by the afew tagging system for
 killed threads.

Yeah, that's what I'm doing now.  Basically “notmuch search
--output=threads is:mute” and then join all the lines with “or” to
finally do “notmuch tag +mute threads”.  I was, however, hoping for
something more dedicated.

Yeah, that's what I'm doing now.  Basically ?notmuch search
--output=threads is:mute? and then join all the lines with ?or? to
finally do ?notmuch tag +mute ?.  I was, however, hoping for

Hello everyone,

I've just started using notmuch and am wondering if there is a way to
make message ?inherit? some of the tags from messages they are written
in replay to (or in general are part of the same thread).

I'm mostly thinking about a ?mute? tag which I'd add to messages that
are completely uninteresting to me.  With the ?inheritance? mechanism,
I'd be able to make notmuch automatically mute all the replays within
the same thread.
