<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
To make replying to email easier, <b>notmuch</b> <b>reply</b> takes an existing set

+ --reply-to=sender is specified, values from the To: and Cc: headers are
copied, but not including any of the current user's email addresses (as
configured in primary_mail or other_email in the .notmuch-config file)
in the recipient list.

Decryption expects a functioning <b>gpg-agent</b>(1) to provide any
needed credentials. Without one, the decryption will fail.
