You can change the overall appearance of the notmuch-hello screen by
-customizing the variable :index:`notmuch-hello-sections`.

+:index:`!notmuch-column-control`
+ Controls the number of columns for saved searches/tags in notmuch view.
+
+ This variable has three potential types of values:
+
+ .. describe:: t
+
+ Automatically calculate the number of columns possible based
+ on the tags to be shown and the window width.
+
+ .. describe:: integer <n>
+
+ A lower bound on the number of characters that will
+ be used to display each column.
+
+ .. describe:: float <f>
+
+ A fraction of the window width that is the lower bound on the
+ number of characters that should be used for each column.
+
+ So:
+
+ - if you would like two columns of tags, set this to 0.5.
+
+ - if you would like a single column of tags, set this to 1.0.
+
+ - if you would like tags to be 30 characters wide, set this to 30.
+
+ - if you don't want to worry about all of this nonsense, leave
+ this set to `t`.

+
+Dealing with large messages and threads
+---------------------------------------
+
+If you are finding :ref:`notmuch-show` is annoyingly slow displaying
+large messages, you can customize
+:index:`notmuch-show-max-text-part-size`. If you want to speed up the
+display of large threads (with or without large messages), there are
+several options. First, you can display the same query in one of the
+other modes. :ref:`notmuch-unthreaded` is the most robust for
+extremely large queries, but :ref:`notmuch-tree` is also be faster
+than :ref:`notmuch-show` in general, since it only renders a single
+message a time. If you prefer to stay with the rendered thread
+("conversation") view of :ref:`notmuch-show`, you can customize the
+variables :index:`notmuch-show-depth-limit`,
+:index:`notmuch-show-height-limit` and
+:index:`notmuch-show-max-text-part-size` to limit the amount of
+rendering done initially. Note that these limits are implicitly
+*OR*-ed together, and combinations might have surprising effects.
+
+:index:`notmuch-show-depth-limit`

.. _show-copy:
Copy to kill-ring
As is the case with :ref:`notmuch-search`, the presentation of results
can be controlled by the variable ``notmuch-search-oldest-first``.
+.. _notmuch-unthreaded:
+
+notmuch-unthreaded
+------------------
+
+``notmuch-unthreaded-mode`` is similar to :any:`notmuch-tree` in that
+each line corresponds to a single message, but no thread information
+is presented.
+
+Keybindings are the same as :any:`notmuch-tree`.

+
+Each notmuch buffer supporting tagging operations (i.e buffers in
+:any:`notmuch-show`, :any:`notmuch-search`, :any:`notmuch-tree`, and
+:any:`notmuch-unthreaded` mode) keeps a local stack of tagging
+operations. These can be undone via ``notmuch-tag-undo``. By default
+this is bound to the usual Emacs keys for undo.

:code:`compose-mail`. To use ``notmuch`` for this, customize this
variable to the symbol :code:`notmuch-user-agent`.
+:index:`message-dont-reply-to-names`
+
+ When composing mail replies, Emacs's message mode uses the
+ variable :code:`message-dont-reply-to-names` to exclude
+ recipients matching a given collection of regular expressions
+ or satisfying an arbitrary predicate. Notmuch's MUA inherits
+ this standard mechanism and will honour your customization of
+ this variable.
