Constructs a reply template for a set of messages.
To make replying to email easier, notmuch reply takes an existing set
- of messages and constructs a suitable mail template. The Reply-to:
- header (if any, otherwise From:) is used for the To: address. Unless
- --reply-to=sender is specified, values from the To: and Cc: headers are
- copied, but not including any of the current user's email addresses (as
- configured in primary_mail or other_email in the .notmuch-config file)
- in the recipient list.

- It also builds a suitable new subject, including Re: at the front (if
- not already present), and adding the message IDs of the messages being
- replied to to the References list and setting the In-Reply-To: field
+ of messages and constructs a suitable mail template. Its To: address is
+ set according to the original email in this way: if the Reply-to:
+ header is present and different from any To:/Cc: address it is used,
+ otherwise From: header is used. Unless --reply-to=sender is specified,

The resulting message template is output to stdout.
Supported options for reply include
-
- --format=(default|json|sexp|headers-only)
-
- default
- Includes subject and quoted message body.
-
- json
- Produces JSON output containing headers for a reply mes-
- sage and the contents of the original message. This out-
- put can be used by a client to create a reply message
- intelligently.
-
- sexp
- Produces S-Expression output containing headers for a
- reply message and the contents of the original message.
- This output can be used by a client to create a reply
- message intelligently.
-
- headers-only
- Only produces In-Reply-To, References, To, Cc, and Bcc
- headers.
-
- --format-version=N
-
- Use the specified structured output format version. This is
- intended for programs that invoke notmuch(1) internally. If
- omitted, the latest supported version will be used.
-
- --reply-to=(all|sender)
-
- all (default)
- Replies to all addresses.
-
- sender
- Replies only to the sender. If replying to user's own
- message (Reply-to: or From: header is one of the user's
- configured email addresses), try To:, Cc:, and Bcc:
- headers in this order, and copy values from the first
- that contains something other than only the user's
- addresses.
-
- --decrypt
-
- Decrypt any MIME encrypted parts found in the selected con-
- tent (ie. "multipart/encrypted" parts). Status of the
- decryption will be reported (currently only supported with
- --format=json and --format=sexp) and the multipart/encrypted
- part will be replaced by the decrypted content.
