-## TODO list
-
-See the [devel/TODO file](http://git.notmuchmail.org/git/notmuch/blob/HEAD:/devel/TODO) in the
-[notmuch git repository](http://git.notmuchmail.org/git/notmuch).
-
-## Emacs client
-
-+ Add 'd' keybinding
-
- Removes unread and inbox tags, adds deleted tag.
-
- When used from a search results view, it deletes the thread that
- the cursor is on.
-
- When used from the thread view, it deletes the currently
- displayed message inside the thread.
-
-+ Add 'D' keybinding
-
- Removes unread and inbox tags, adds deleted tag.
-
- When used from a search results view, it deletes the thread that
- the cursor is on (just like 'd')
-
- When used from the thread view, it deletes the currently
- displayed thread (and not just the message)
-
-+ Add '???' keybinding
-
- Skips current thread without archiving it
-
- Right now 'n' gets me to the end of a thread, but not to the
- beginning of the next thread. 'a' gets you to the next thread,
- but archives the current one.
-
-+ Allow different "real names" for the optional email addresses
-
- if only one name is configured, use that for all addresses;
- if other_names are configured, match those with the other_email addresses
-
-+ Put the the emacs mode in a separate repository and include it as a
- submodule in main (better for emacs package managers among other
- things).
-
-## notmuch
-
-+ Add hooks for retagging:
- + pre-tag: Called before tagging messages
- + post-tag: Called after messages got tagged
-
- This might be useful if you want to sync for example your Maildirs with the notmuch tags.
-
-+ Allow a custom location for .notmuch
-
- The notmuch index is currently saved in .notmuch under the user's
- Maildir and there's no configuration option to change that.
-
- This is problematic with both tools that sync Maildirs and with IMAP
- servers that consider .notmuch a Maildir subfolder (e.g. dovecot)
-
- A better solution would be to add a configuration option for this so
- that it can be put e.g. in ~/.notmuch
-
-+ Add a list or pattern for subfolders to ignore
-
- Some people are crazy enough to archive e.g. their Spam in their
- Maildir and perhaps they'd prefer not having them indexed on notmuch.
-
- Having a configuration option to exclude or include certain subparts of
- the user's Maildir would be a very nice feature to have.
-
-+ Index more headers. Some desired headers:
-
- + Received: allows for searches based on the arrival path
- + Reply-To: allows for searches based on the return address
-
-+ Allow anchors in searches
-
- `notmuch search from:domain.org$` only matches if "domain.org" is
- at the end of the From: header
-
- `notmuch search from:^username` only matches if "username" is at
- the beginning of the From: header (right after the ':')
-
- This leaves the interesting question if we want a way to bind to
- the actual address component.
-
-+ Add folder tags to mail automatically
-
- Add the name of the IMAP folder as the tag for mails. This way,
- server-side filtering can be directly used by notmuch to tag all
- incoming mail.
-
-+ Make message store code modular
-
- Notmuch is built on the assumption that the message store is a
- collection of message files in directories (roughly Maildir
- format). This performs suboptimally for a wide range of systems,
- especially with large numbers of messages. Modularising the
- message store code to move this assumption into the implementation
- rather than the interface would allow adding support for different
- message stores like the traditional [mbox
- formats](http://homepage.ntlworld.com./jonathan.deboynepollard/FGA/mail-mbox-formats.html)
- as well as more experimental approaches like using git as an object
- storage (similar to how [[nmbug]] operates).
-
-+ Put content of all non-multipart content-types in results of `notmuch show --format=json ...`
-
- In the JSON-format output of the `show` command, only text/plain
- parts' content is included. Including the content of parts having any
- non-multipart content-type would assist with those who wished to access
- their mail through notmuch's `show` command (because of having written
- their MUA in a language with no library bindings or access to them
- [e.g. Perl, Lua or shell]) and also had a mailcap or similar MIME-type
- mapping system with which to actually view HTML files, images and the like.

-## 3rd party apps
-
-### notmuchsync
-
-NOTE: most of notmuchsync's functionality has been integrated in
- notmuch 0.5. It probably doesn't make much sense to requests
- features for it, rather than notmuch itself.
-
-+ DONE: id:"878w8niy83.fsf@SSpaeth.de"
- Add feature to move files in the maildir hierarchy
-
- `notmuchsync --move "searchstring" "targetfolder"`
-
- Where searchstring is any valid notmuch search
-
