The default <b>batch-tag</b> dump format is intended to more
robust against malformed message-ids and tags containing
whitespace or non-<b>ascii</b>(7) characters. Each line has the

Tags are hex-encoded by replacing every byte not matching
the regex <b>[A-Za-z0-9@=.,</b>_<b>+-]</b> with <b>%nn</b> where nn is the two

query, quoted using Xapian boolean term quoting rules: if
