\ No newline at end of file
+  There is no built-in support for sunchronizing your notmuch tags
+  with your imap maildir flags (seen, replied, trashed, etc). However
+  there are currently 2 ways in which you can achieve
+  synchronization. In order to sync new notmuch tags to maildir flags,
+  there is a python tool called
+  [notmuchsync](http://spaetz.github.com/notmuchsync/) that allows
+  synchronization in either direction or pruning of deleted files.  
+
+  The second solution allows for fast maildir flag to notmuch tag
+  synchronization (and only in that direction) requires patching the
+  notmuch source code. The patch has been posted in this mail
+  *id:1267450136-31749-1-git-send-email-Sebastian@SSpaeth.de* and can
+  be viewed as a [source diff in this git
+  repository](http://github.com/spaetz/notmuch-all-feature/commit/df3b087cefb85e9d16fd17540e348bcb854dd7ee).
