When used from a search results view, it deletes the thread that the cursor is on. When used from the thread view, it deletes the currently displayed message inside the thread. + add 'D' keybinding Removes unread and inbox tags, adds deleted tag. When used from a search results view, it deletes the thread that the cursor is on (just like 'd') When used from the thread view, it deletes the currently displayed thread (and not just the message) + add '???' keybinding Skips current thread without archiving it Right now 'n' gets me to the end of a thread, but not to the beginning of the next thread. 'a' gets you to the next thread, but archives the current one. + select from address (with the configured email addresses as default choices to pick from) + 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 + 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 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. Having a configuration option to exclude or include certain subparts of the user's Maildir would be a very nice feature to have. + 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. ## 3rd party apps ### notmuchsync + 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. + Add feature to move files in the maildir hierarchy notmuchsync --move "searchstring" "targetfolder" Where searchstring is any valid notmuch search
