-
-I saw the LWN article and decided to take a look at notmuch. I'm
-currently using mutt and mairix to index and read a collection of
-Maildir mail folders (around 40,000 messages total).
-
-notmuch indexed the messages without complaint, but my attempt at
-searching bombed out. Running, for example:
-
- notmuch search storage
-
-Resulted in 4604 lines of errors along the lines of:
-
- Error opening
- /home/lars/Mail/read-messages.2008/cur/1246413773.24928_27334.hostname,U=3026:2,S:
- Too many open files
-
-I'm curious if this is expected behavior (i.e., notmuch does not work
-with Maildir) or if something else is going on.
-
-Cheers,

- Is the list archived anywhere? The obvious archives

-
- It doesn't look like the patch is in git yet.

- Oops. Looks like Carl's mail server is broken. He's traveling to
- Barcelona today and so it won't get fixed for a while.
-
- Thanks to everyone for trying out notmuch!

- The version of lib/messages.cc in your repo doesn't build because it's
- missing "#include <stdint.h>" (for the uint32_t on line 466).

- Welcome, Lars!
-
- I hadn't even seen that Keith's blog post had been picked up by lwn.net.
- That's very interesting. So, thanks for coming and trying out notmuch.

- Sadly, the lwn article coincided with me having just introduced this
- bug, and then getting on a Trans-Atlantic flight. So I fixed the bug
- fairly quickly, but there was quite a bit of latency before I could push
- the fix out. It should be fixed now.

-
- Notmuch works just fine with maildir---it's one of the things that it
- likes the best.
-
- Happy hacking,
