Re: handling mail sent to a subscribed list

2012-12-16 Thread Brandon Invergo
 If understand correctly, your concern is with the second copy of a
 message with the same message-id not showing up in your inbox? If so, this is
 more or less a feature (although in the case where the duplicated
 message id's are because of malice or stupidity on the sender's part,
 and not duplicated messages, it is also a known bug).  

 On the command line you can try notmuch search --output=files id:foo
 where id:foo is copied via c i in the emacs interface.

 Or maybe I misunderstand your problem completely.

Thanks for the reply. Yes I think you summed it up; I figured that it
was behaving properly. In short it's that I have the email that I sent
sitting wherever it was Fcc'ed and then shortly thereafter I receive
from the email list a message with the same ID. Since the Fcc'ed one was
already added to the database, the one that I received from the list
just sits there. But I guess others using mailing lists have encountered
this too, so I was asking how they handle it since I haven't figured it
out yet.

I'll give that command a try to see if I can put it to good use somehow.

handling mail sent to a subscribed list

2012-12-10 Thread Brandon Invergo
Hi everyone,

This is probably a rather simplistic question but I haven't been able to
find the proper settings to overcome it; I also wasn't able to find a
similar question in the list archives.

I am using the notmuch emacs client (0.14) on several different
computers. I find that when I send an email to a mailing list to which I
am subscribed, the copy of my message that I eventually receive from the
list sits in the new/ subdirectory of the Maildir and never has the
inbox tag added to it. When I use a different computer and download the
message, it is added just fine. 

The result is that I have to frequently move mail manually from
new/ to cur/. When I run notmuch new, it detects that a file was moved,
so I guess the mail received is properly added to the database; it just
never gets added to inbox and is therefore never read in the emacs
client. I'm sure there's a simple way around this and it's not a bug,
but I haven't figured it out. Can anyone give me a tip? I hope I've
explained clearly enough.

Thanks for your help,
Brandon
