 The `notmuch-extract-thread-patches` and
 `notmuch-extract-message-patches` commands from the `elpa-mailscripts`
 package in Debian (and its derivatives) can do this for you.
+
+## Allow content preference based on message context
+
+The preference for which sub-part of a multipart/alternative part is shown is
+globally set. For example, if you prefer showing the html version over the text
+based, you can set:
+
+    (setq notmuch-multipart/alternative-discouraged '("text/plain" "text/html"))
+
+However, sometimes you might want to adapt your preference depending on the
+context. You can override the default settings on a per-message basis by
+providing a function that has access to the message and which returns the
+discouraged type list. For example:
+
+    (defun my/determine-discouraged (msg)
+      (let* ((headers (plist-get msg :headers))
+             (from (or (plist-get headers :From) "")))
+        (cond
+         ((string-match "whatever@mail.address.com" from)
+          '("text/plain"))
+         (t
+          '("text/html" "multipart/related")))))
+
+    (setq notmuch-multipart/alternative-discouraged
+          'my/determine-discouraged)
+
+This would discourage text/html and multipart/related generally, but discourage
+text/plain should the message be sent from whatever@mail.address.com.
+
+## See the recipient address instead of your address when listing sent messages
+
+If you like to see your sent messages in unthreaded view, by default you will
+see your address in the authors column, which is maybe not what you want. The
+following code allows for showing the recipients if your email address (an
+arbitrary address, whatever@mail.address.com in the example) is included in the
+From field.
+
+    (defun my/notmuch-unthreaded-show-recipient-if-sent (format-string result)
+    (let* ((headers (plist-get result :headers))
+           (to (plist-get headers :To))
+           (author (plist-get headers :From))
+           (face (if (plist-get result :match)
+                     'notmuch-tree-match-author-face
+                   'notmuch-tree-no-match-author-face)))
+      (propertize
+       (format format-string
+               (if (string-match "whatever@mail.address.com" author)
+                   (concat "↦ " (notmuch-tree-clean-address to))
+                   (notmuch-tree-clean-address to)
+                 author))
+       'face face)))
+
+    (setq notmuch-unthreaded-result-format
+          '(("date" . "%12s  ")
+            (my/notmuch-unthreaded-show-recipient-if-sent . "%-20.20s")
+            ((("subject" . "%s"))
