+## Replacing tabs with spaces in subject and header
+
+Mailman mailing list software rewrites and rewraps long message subjects in
+a way that causes TABs to appear in the middle of the subject and header
+lines. Add this to your `.emacs` to replace tabs with spaces in subject
+lines:
+
+       (defun notmuch-show-subject-tabs-to-spaces ()
+         "Replace tabs with spaces in subject line."
+         (goto-char (point-min))

+
+       (add-hook 'notmuch-show-markup-headers-hook 'notmuch-show-subject-tabs-to-spaces)
+
+And in header lines (this will only work with the yet to be released
+notmuch version 0.15):
+
+       (defun notmuch-show-header-tabs-to-spaces ()
+         "Replace tabs with spaces in header line."
