-Notmuch 0.18~rc0 (2014-04-22)
+Notmuch 0.18~rc1 (2014-05-04)
=============================
+Overview
+--------
+
+This new release includes some enhancements to searching for messages
+by filesystem location (`folder:` and `path:` prefixes under *General*
+below). Saved searches in *Emacs* have also been enhanced to allow
+distinct search orders for each one. Another enhancement to the
+*Emacs* interface is that replies to encrypted messages are now
+encrypted, reducing the risk of unintentional information disclosure.
+The default dump output format has changed to the more robust
+`batch-tag` format. The previously deprecated parsing of single
+message mboxes has been removed. For detailed release notes, see
+below.
+
General
-------
The `folder:` search prefix now requires an exact match
The `folder:` prefix has been changed to search for email messages
- by the exact, case sensitive maildir or MH folder name. The new
- behaviour allows for more accurate mail folder based searches, and
- should lead to less surprising results than the old behaviour. Users
- are advised to see the `notmuch-search-terms` manual page for
- details, and review how the change affects their existing `folder:`
- searches.
+ by the exact, case sensitive maildir or MH folder name. Wildcard
+ matching (`folder:foo*`) is no longer supported. The new behaviour
+ allows for more accurate mail folder based searches, makes it
+ possible to search for messages in the top-level folder, and should
+ lead to less surprising results than the old behaviour. Users are
+ advised to see the `notmuch-search-terms` manual page for details,
+ and review how the change affects their existing `folder:` searches.
There is a new `path:` search prefix.
been deprecated since Notmuch 0.15. The support has now been
dropped, and all mbox files will be rejected during indexing.
+Message header parsing changes
+
+ Notmuch previously had an internal parser for message headers. The
+ parser has now been dropped in favour of letting GMime parse both
+ the headers and the message MIME structure at the same pass. This is
+ mostly an internal change, but the GMime parser is stricter in its
+ interpretation of the headers. This may result in messages with
+ slightly malformed message headers being now rejected.
+
Command-Line Interface
----------------------
This option suppresses the progress and summary reports.
+`notmuch insert` respects maildir.synchronize_flags config option
+
+ Do not synchronize tags to maildir flags in `notmuch insert` if the
+ user does not want it.
+
+The commands set consistent exit status codes on failures
+
+ The cli commands now consistently set exit status of 1 on failures,
+ except where explicitly otherwise noted. The notable expections are
+ the status codes for format version mismatches for commands that
+ support formatted output.
+
+Bug fix for checking configured new.tags for invalid tags
+
+ `notmuch new` and `notmuch insert` now check the user configured
+ new.tags for invalid tags, and refuse to apply them, similar to
+ `notmuch tag`. Invalid tags are currently the empty string and tags
+ starting with `-`.
+
Emacs Interface
---------------
encrypt replies to encrypted messages. This should make it less
likely to accidentally reply to encrypted messages in plain text.
+Reply pushes mark before signature
+
+ We push mark and set point on reply so that the user can easily cut
+ the quoted text. The mark is now pushed before the signature, if
+ any, instead of end of buffer so the signature is preserved.
+
+Message piping uses the originating buffer's working directory
+
+ `notmuch-show-pipe-message` now uses the originating buffer's
+ current default directory instead of that of the `*notmuch-pipe*`
+ buffer's.
