Punctuation is mostly ignored. The boolean prefix searches (see Boolean and Probabilistic Prefixes in the man page), such as tag: or path: searches, need an exact match. + +## How do I search for the `List-Id:` header? + +Currently there is no way to search for `List-Id:`. As a workaround, try using a +`to:` prefix search (which covers both `To:` and `Cc:` headers) on the mailing +list address. + +Limitations in the duplicate message handling are the main reason for not +indexing the `List-Id:` header. If you receive the same message via both the +list and directly (by way of `To:` or `Cc:`), only the first message encountered +will be indexed. Only the message received via the list will have `List-Id:`, +but you would expect a `List-Id:` search to find the message, regardless of the +order in which the duplicates were received. This is a more general problem than +just `List-Id:`, and once this has been resolved, adding `List-Id:` indexing is +trivial. + +## Can I use notmuch with grsec? + +Sure! It works out of the box. If you have TPE enabled (trusted path execution), +make sure the user is executing the script belongs to the +`kernel.grsecurity.tpe_gid` (in debian this is grsec-tpe). +This is required in order to run the `pre-new` and `post-new` hooks.
