NOTMUCH-ADDRESS(1)

NAME

       notmuch-address - output addresses from matching messages

SYNOPSIS

       notmuch address [option ...] <search-term> ...

DESCRIPTION

       Search  for  messages  matching the given search terms, and display the
       addresses from them. Duplicate addresses are filtered out.

       See notmuch-search-terms(7) for details of  the  supported  syntax  for
       <search-terms>.

       Supported options for address include

          --format=(json|sexp|text|text0)
                 Presents  the  results in either JSON, S-Expressions, newline
                 character separated plain-text (default), or  null  character
                 separated  plain-text  (compatible  with  xargs(1)  -0 option
                 where available).

          --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.

          --output=(sender|recipients|count)
              Controls which information appears in the  output.  This  option
              can  be given multiple times to combine different outputs.  When
              neither --output=sender nor --output=recipients is given, --out‐
              put=sender is implied.

              sender Output all addresses from the From header.

                     Note:  Searching  for  sender  should be much faster than
                     searching for recipients, because  sender  addresses  are
                     cached  directly  in the database whereas other addresses
                     need to be fetched from message files.

              recipients
                     Output all addresses from the To, Cc and Bcc headers.

              count  Print the count of how many times was the address encoun‐
                     tered during search.

                     Note:  With this option, addresses are printed only after
                     the whole search is finished. This may take long time.

          --sort=(newest-first|oldest-first)
                 This option can be used to present results in either  chrono‐
                 logical  order  (oldest-first) or reverse chronological order
                 (newest-first).

                 By default, results will be displayed in reverse  chronologi‐
                 cal  order,  (that  is,  the newest results will be displayed
                 first).

                 This option is not supported with --output=count.

          --exclude=(true|false)
                 A message is called "excluded" if it matches at least one tag
                 in  search.tag_exclude that does not appear explicitly in the
                 search terms. This option specifies whether to omit  excluded
                 messages in the search process.

                 The  default  value,  true,  prevents  excluded messages from
                 matching the search terms.

                 false allows excluded messages  to  match  search  terms  and
                 appear in displayed results.

       20     The requested format version is too old.

       21     The requested format version is too new.
