message will automatically be tagged with both the **inbox** and
**unread** tags.
-You should run **notmuch new** once after first running **notmuch
-setup** to create the initial database. The first run may take a long
-time if you have a significant amount of mail (several hundred thousand
-messages or more). Subsequently, you should run **notmuch new** whenever
-new mail is delivered and you wish to incorporate it into the database.
-These subsequent runs will be much quicker than the initial run.

-not previously been run.

**notmuch new** updates tags according to maildir flag changes if the

Supported options for **new** include
-``--no-hooks``
- Prevents hooks from being run.

+.. option:: --no-hooks
+
+ Prevents hooks from being run.
+
+.. option:: --quiet
+
+ Do not print progress or results.

+.. option:: --verbose
+
+ Print file names being processed. Ignored when combined with
+ ``--quiet``.
+
+.. option:: --decrypt=(true|nostash|auto|false)
+
+ If ``true``, when encountering an encrypted message, try to
+ decrypt it while indexing, and stash any discovered session keys.
+ If ``auto``, try to use any session key already known to belong to
+ this message, but do not attempt to use the user's secret keys.
+ If decryption is successful, index the cleartext of the message.
-``--quiet``
- Do not print progress or results.
+ Be aware that the index is likely sufficient (and the session key
+ is certainly sufficient) to reconstruct the cleartext of the
+ message itself, so please ensure that the notmuch message index is
+ adequately protected. DO NOT USE ``--decrypt=true`` or
+ ``--decrypt=nostash`` without considering the security of your
