15 Hooks are scripts (or arbitrary executables or symlinks to such) that
16 notmuch invokes before and after certain actions. These scripts reside
17 in the .notmuch/hooks directory within the database directory and must
18 have executable permissions.
20 The currently available hooks are described below.
23 This hook is invoked by the <b>new</b> command before scanning or
24 importing new messages into the database. If this hook exits
25 with a non-zero status, notmuch will abort further processing
26 of the <b>new</b> command.
28 Typically this hook is used for fetching or delivering new mail
29 to be imported into the database.
32 This hook is invoked by the <b>new</b> command after new messages have
33 been imported into the database and initial tags have been
34 applied. The hook will not be run if there have been any errors
35 during the scan or import.
37 Typically this hook is used to perform additional query-based
38 tagging on the imported messages.
