+

+     but archives the current one.

++    Allow different "real names" for the optional email addresses
+
+     if only one name is configured, use that for all addresses;
+     if other_names are configured, match those with the other_email addresses
 
 
 ## notmuch 
 
-+ Add folder keyword
-Allows to search for messages in a specific folder
++    Allow a custom location for .notmuch
+
+     The notmuch index is currently saved in .notmuch under the user's
+     Maildir and there's no configuration option to change that.
+
+     This is problematic with both tools that sync Maildirs and with IMAP
+     servers that consider .notmuch a Maildir subfolder (e.g. dovecot)
+
+     A better solution would be to add a configuration option for this so
+     that it can be put e.g. in ~/.notmuch
+
++    Add a list or pattern for subfolders to ignore
 
-+ Allow anchors in searches
-notmuch search from:domain.org$ only matches if "domain.org" is at the end of the From: header
-notmuch search from:^username only matches if "username" is at the beginning of the From: header (right after the ':')
-This leaves the interesting question if we want a way to bind to the actual address component.
+     Some people are crazy enough to archive e.g. their Spam in their
+     Maildir and perhaps they'd prefer not having them indexed on notmuch.
 
-+ Add Received: header to the indexed header components
+     Having a configuration option to exclude or include certain subparts of
+     the user's Maildir would be a very nice feature to have.
 
-## 3rd part apps
++    Index more headers.  Some desired headers:
+
+  + Received: allows for searches based on the arrival path
+  + Reply-To: allows for searches based on the return address
+
++    Allow anchors in searches
+
+     `notmuch search from:domain.org$` only matches if "domain.org" is
+     at the end of the From: header
+
+     `notmuch search from:^username` only matches if "username" is at
+     the beginning of the From: header (right after the ':')
+
+     This leaves the interesting question if we want a way to bind to
+     the actual address component.
+
++    Add folder tags to mail automatically
+
+     Add the name of the IMAP folder as the tag for mails.  This way,
+     server-side filtering can be directly used by notmuch to tag all
+     incoming mail.
+
++    Make message store code modular
+
+     Notmuch is built on the assumption that the message store is a
+     collection of message files in directories (roughly Maildir
+     format). This performs suboptimally for a wide range of systems,
+     especially with large numbers of messages. Modularising the
+     message store code to move this assumption into the implementation
+     rather than the interface would allow adding support for different
+     message stores like the traditional [mbox
+     formats](http://homepage.ntlworld.com./jonathan.deboynepollard/FGA/mail-mbox-formats.html)
+     as well as more experimental approaches like using git as an object
+     storage (similar to how [[nmbug]] operates).

 ### notmuchsync
 
-+ Add feature to move files in the maildir hierarchy
-notmuchsync --move "searchstring" "targetfolder"
-Where searchstring is any valid notmuch search
++    NOTE: most of notmuchsync's functionality has been integrated in
+     notmuch 0.5. It probably doesn't make much sense to requests features
+     for it, rather than notmuch itself.
