if only one name is configured, use that for all addresses;
if other_names are configured, match those with the other_email addresses
-## notmuch
-+ Add folder keyword
+## notmuch
+
++ 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
- Allows to search for messages in a specific folder.
+ 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:
+ Allow anchors in searches
- notmuch search from:domain.org$ only matches if "domain.org" is
+ `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
+ `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).

## 3rd party apps
### notmuchsync
-+ Add feature to move files in the maildir hierarchy
+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"
+ `notmuchsync --move "searchstring" "targetfolder"`
Where searchstring is any valid notmuch search
