-==============
-
-The notmuch  module provides an interface to the `notmuch <http://notmuchmail.org>`_ functionality, directly interfacing with a shared notmuch library. Notmuch provides a maildatabase that allows for extremely quick searching and filtering of your email according to various criteria.
-
-The documentation for the latest cnotmuch release can be `viewed online <http://packages.python.org/notmuch>`_.
-
-The classes notmuch.Database, notmuch.Query  provide most of the core functionality, returning notmuch.Messages and notmuch.Tags.

-notmuch is included in the upstream notmuch source repository and it is
-packaged on http://pypi.python.org. This means you can do "easy_install
-notmuch" (or using pip) on your linux box and it will get installed

-For uninstalling, you will need to remove the "notmuch-0.x-py2.x.egg"
-directory and delete one entry refering to cnotmuch in the
-"easy-install.pth" file in that directory. There should be no trace
-left of cnotmuch then.

+online <http://notmuch.readthedocs.org/>`_.
 
 Requirements
 ------------
 
-You need to have notmuch installed (or rather libnotmuch.so.1). The
-release version 0.3 should work fine. Also, notmuch makes use of the
-ctypes library, and has only been tested with python 2.5. It will not
-work on earlier python versions.
