There's a page about the [[notmuch-mutt]] scripts that are distributed along
with notmuch, in its contrib directory.
-# Using Notmuch with mutt-kz
+# Using Notmuch with neomutt
-Here is a tip about how to set up [mutt-kz](https://github.com/karelzak/mutt-kz), a fork
-of the mutt MUA with support of notmuch integrated.
+*Note*: This discussion was updated by a non-mutt user from talking about mutt-kz to
+[neomutt](https://neomutt.org/). Caveat lector!
-## Install:
-You'll need to first have notmuch installed and the notmuch library available to
-configure. Otherwise, it is a good old autoconf setup, so here it goes:
+## Install:
- git clone https://github.com/karelzak/mutt-kz.git
- cd mutt-kz
- ./configure && make && make install
+See [the neomutt install page](https://neomutt.org/distro). If
+building from source see [build
+instructions](https://neomutt.org/dev/build/build). Note in particular
+the `--notmuch` configuration option.
## Configuration:
+*N.B.* From here is unmodified previous discussion about `mutt-kz`,
+which hopefully also applies to neomutt.

Here is my `.muttrc` I use with `mutt-kz`, explanations as comments:
# notmuch
## Mail tagging on sending
-You may have noticed in `mutt-kz`'s configuration that I set the `sendmail` variable
+You may have noticed in `neomutts`'s configuration that I set the `sendmail` variable
of mutt to a `nm_sendmail` script. This is for tagging outgoing mail each time I send
-a mail. Here is the content of the script (which may be used directly in mutt's
-variable, I did not try).
+a mail. Here is the content of the script (which may be used directly in mutt's
+variable, I did not try).
Source of `nm_sendmail`:
#!/bin/bash
- tee >(notmuch-deliver -t sent -f Sent) | sendmail $*
+ tee >(notmuch insert --folder=Sent +sent) | sendmail $*
## Mail filtering/tagging
-For mail tagging on arrival, I prefer to use a simple procmail delivery along with
-notmuch-delivery (which can be compiled in the `contrib/` directory of notmuch's sources).
+For mail tagging on arrival, I prefer to use a simple procmail delivery along with
+`notmuch insert`.
Of course, you could use formail or maildrop, instead of procmail, but it is flexible
enough for my needs, and here is an example of configuration that can be useful:
:0 Wh
| /usr/local/bin/notmuch_abook update
- NOINBOX="-r inbox"
+ NOINBOX="-inbox"
TAGS=""
# manage dynamic tagging, using the ' + ' token in mail addresses
* ^TO\/user\+[a-z0-9]+@fqdn\.tld
* MATCH ?? ^user\+\/[a-z0-9]+
{
- TAGS="-t ${MATCH}"
+ TAGS="+${MATCH}"
}
# match all mails from mailing-lists, don't let them go to inbox, but tag them with ml
:0:notmuch.lock
* ^List-[Ii][dD]:.*
{
- TAGS="${TAGS} -t ml -r inbox"
+ TAGS="${TAGS} +ml -inbox"
}
# tag all mails coming from mutt-kz mailing list
:0:notmuch.lock
* .*mutt-kz\.lists\.fedoraproject\.org.*
- | notmuch-deliver $TAGS -t mutt -t notmuch
+ | notmuch insert $TAGS +mutt +notmuch
# tag all mails coming from notmuch mailing list
:0:notmuch.lock
* .*notmuch\.notmuchmail\.org.*
- | notmuch-deliver $TAGS -t notmuch
+ | notmuch insert $TAGS +notmuch
# Mark all spams as junk mail
:0:notmuch.lock
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
- | notmuch-deliver -t junk
+ | notmuch insert +junk
:0:notmuch.lock
* ^Subject: .*SPAM.*
- | notmuch-deliver -t junk
+ | notmuch insert +junk
### All unmatched mails
:0:notmuch.lock
* .*
- | notmuch-deliver -v $TAGS
+ | notmuch insert $TAGS
there's a line that updates the addressbook with addresses of current mail, and you'll
be able to read more about it on the [[vimtips]] page.
