@@ -10,3 +11,45 @@ Notmuch searches are message based. Multiple files may be associated
 with the same message (i.e. the files have identical Message-ID). A
 `folder:` search will match the folder of any of the files. The
 `--output=files` option outputs all the files of all matching messages.

+
+## How do I search for messages that have no tags?
+
+Unfortunately, there is no way to do this directly.
+
+However, it's possible to accomplish this using two searches in shell. First,
+you need to query all tags in the database, and transform the result into a
+query that matches messages that have none of those tags:
+
+        $ notmuch search --output=tags \* | sed 's/^/not tag:/;2~1s/^/and /'
+
+Next, use that to query the messages:
+
+        $ notmuch search $(notmuch search --output=tags \* | \
+                sed 's/^/not tag:/;2~1s/^/and /')
+
+## How do I search for punctuation, specific special characters, or regexp?
+
+Please see the [[notmuch-search-terms manual
+page|manpages/notmuch-search-terms-7]] first.
+
+The main thing to understand is that Xapian, and therefore Notmuch, searches are
+closer to natural language searches than regular expression
+searches. 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.
