Oh, I meant as an option of course, with a default to keep the current behaviour. ___ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch

Just to be clear, I wasn't commenting on whether it was the right thing to do or not, just whether it would be hard. It seems likely to be annoying to at least some people to have messages show up as unread again (or whatever the tags are) when new copies arrive. d ___ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch

How complicated would it be to implement this? It doesn't look especially hard, assuming the obvious small change to add_file() in notmuch-insert.c works. I didn't look at the equivalent code path in notmuch-new.c.
