You can also use the notmuch database as a mail address book itself.
To do this you need a command line tool that outputs likely address
-candidates based on a search string. There are currently two
+candidates based on a search string. There are currently three
available:
* The python tool `notmuch_address.py` (`git clone
cc -o addrlookup addrlookup.c `pkg-config --cflags --libs gobject-2.0` -lnotmuch
-You can perform tab-completion using either of these programs. Just add the following to your .emacs:
+ * Shell/fgrep/perl combination [nottoomuch-addresses.sh](http://www.iki.fi/too/nottoomuch/nottoomuch-addresses/).
+ This tools maintains it's own address "database" gathered from email
+ files notmuch knows and search from that "database" is done by fgrep(1).
+
+You can perform tab-completion using any of these programs. Just add the following to your .emacs:
(require 'notmuch-address)
(setq notmuch-address-command "/path/to/address_fetching_program")
