These are both corrected in + this release. + +Command Line Interface +---------------------- + +Fix several memory leaks in `notmuch show`. + +Update NEWS for 0.24 to mention schema changes. + +Fix bug in dump header. + + The previous version of the dump header failed to mention the + inclusion of tags. This fix bumps the version number of the dump + format to 3. There are no other changes to the format. + +Library Changes +--------------- + +Fix a read-after-free in the library. + +Notmuch 0.24 (2017-03-12) +========================= + +General +------- + +Regular expression searches supported for `from:` and `subject:`. + + This requires recent Xapian (1.4+) See notmuch-search-terms(7) for + details. + +Command Line Interface +---------------------- + +Run external `notmuch-` prefixed commands as subcommands + + You can now add your own `notmuch-` prefixed commands in PATH, and + have notmuch run them as if they were notmuch commands. See the + `notmuch(1)` man page for details + +New default output format to 3 + + See devel/schemata for details. Users of the structured output + format are reminded of the `--format-version` argument to `notmuch + show` and `notmuch search` which can prevent breakage when the + default format changes. + +Emacs +----- + +Postpone and resume messages in `notmuch-message-mode` (composition) + + Notmuch now has built in support for postponing, saving and resuming + messages. The default bindings are C-x C-s to save a draft, C-c C-p + to postpone a draft (save and exit compose buffer), and "e" in show + or tree view to resume. + + Draft messages are tagged with `notmuch-draft-tags` (draft by + default) so you may wish to add that to the excluded tags list. When + saving a previously saved draft message the earlier draft gets + tagged deleted. + + Note that attachments added before postponing will be included as + they were when you postponed in the final message. + +Address Completion + + It is now possible to save the list of address completions for + notmuch's internal completion between runs of emacs. This makes the + first calls to address completion much better and faster. For + privacy reasons it is disabled by default, to enable set or + customize `notmuch-address-save-filename`. + +Tag jump menu + + It is now possible to configure tagging shortcuts (with an interface + like notmuch jump). For example (by default) k u will remove the + unread tag, and k s will add a tag "spam" and remove the inbox + tag. Pressing k twice will do the reverse operation so, for example, + k k s removes the spam tag and adds the inbox tag. See the customize + variable `notmuch-tagging-keys` for more information. + +Refresh all buffers + + It is now possible to refresh all notmuch buffers to reflect the + current state of the database with a single command, `M-=`. + +Stop display of application/* parts + + By default gnus displays all application/* parts such as + application/zip in the message buffer. This has several undesirable + effects for notmuch (security, triggering errors etc). Notmuch now + overrides this and does not display them by default. If you have + customized `mm-inline-override-types` then we assume you know what + you want and do not interfere; if you do want to stop the display of + application/* add application/* to your customization. If you want + to allow application/* then set `mm-inline-override-types` to + "non/existent". + +Small change in the api for notmuch-search-tag + + When `notmuch-search-tag` is called non-interactively and the region + is set, then it only tags the threads in the region. (Previously it + only tagged the current thread.) + +Bugfix for sending messages with very long headers. + + Previously emacs didn't fold very long headers when sending which + could cause the MTA to refuse to send the message. This makes sure + it does fold any long headers so the message is RFC compliant. + +`notmuch emacs-mua` command installed with the Emacs interface + + We've carried a `notmuch-emacs-mua` script in the source tree for + quite some time. It can be used to launch the Notmuch Emacs + interface from the command line in many different ways. Starting + with this release, it will be installed with the Emacs + interface. With the new external subcommand support, the script + transparently becomes a new notmuch command. See the + `notmuch-emacs-mua(1)` man page for details. + +Notmuch Emacs desktop integration + + The desktop integration file will now be installed with the Notmuch + Emacs interface, adding a Notmuch menu item and configuration to + allow the user to set up Notmuch Emacs as the `mailto:` URL handler. + +Library changes +--------------- + +`notmuch_query_count_messages` is now non-destructive. + + Internally the implementation of excludes has changed to make this + possible. + +Improved handling of DatabaseModifiedError + + Previously uncaught exceptions reading message metadata are now + handled. + +Notmuch 0.23.7 (2017-02-28) +=========================== + +Test Suite +---------- + +Drop use of gpgconf --create-socketdir. Move $GNUPGHOME to /tmp. + + It turns out the hardcoded use of /run/user in gpg doesn't work out + that well in some environments. The more low tech fix is to move all + of $GNUPGHOME to somewhere where we can control the length of the + paths. + +Notmuch 0.23.6 (2017-02-27) +=========================== + +Command Line Interface +---------------------- + +Fix read-after-free bug in `notmuch new`. + +Test Suite +---------- + +Use gpgconf --create-socketdir if available. + + GnuPG has a facility to use sockets in /run or /var/run to avoid + problems with long socket paths, but this is not enabled by default + for GNUPGHOME other than $HOME/.gnupg. Enable it, if possible. + +Notmuch 0.23.5 (2017-01-09) +=========================== + +Build system +------------ + +Fix quoting bug in configure. This had introduced a RUNPATH into the +notmuch binary in cases where it was not not needed. + +Notmuch 0.23.4 (2016-12-24) +=========================== + +Command Line Interface +---------------------- + +Improve error handling in notmuch insert + + Database lock errors no longer prevent message file delivery to the + filesystem. Certain errors during `notmuch insert` most likely to + be temporary return EX_TEMPFAIL. + +Emacs +----- + +Restore autoload cookie for notmuch-search. + +Notmuch 0.23.3 (2016-11-27) +=========================== + +Command Line Interface +---------------------- + +Treat disappearing files during notmuch new as non-fatal. + +Test Suite +---------- + +Fix incompatibility (related to signature size) with gnupg 2.1.16. + +Notmuch 0.23.2 (2016-11-20) +=========================== + +Emacs +----- + +Fix notmuch-interesting-buffer and notmuch-cycle-notmuch-buffers. + + notmuch-tree-mode and notmuch-message-mode buffers are now + considered interesting by `notmuch-interesting-buffer` and + `notmuch-cycle-notmuch-buffers`. + +Restore compatibility with Emacs 23. + + Notmuch support for Emacs 23 is now deprecated. + +Notmuch 0.23.1 (2016-10-23) +=========================== + +General +------- + +Require Xapian >= 1.2.6 + + The ifdef branch for older Xapian (pre-compact API) had bit-rotted. + +Emacs +----- + +Fix default colours for unread and flagged messages + + In 0.23 the default colours for unread and flagged messages in + search view were accidentally swapped. This release returns them to + the original colours. + + A related change in 0.23 broke the customize widget for + notmuch-search-line-faces. This is now fixed. + +Fix test failure with Emacs 25.1 + + A previously undiscovered jit-lock related bug was exposed by Emacs + 25, causing a notmuch-show mode test to fail. This release fixes the + bug, and hence the test. + +Notmuch 0.23 (2016-10-03) ========================= +General (Xapian 1.4+) +--------------------- + +Compiling against Xapian 1.4 enables several new features. + +Support for single argument date: queries + + `date:` is equivalent to `date:..`. + +Support for blocking opens + + When opening a database notmuch by default will wait for another + process to release a write lock, rather than returning an error. + +Support for named queries + + Named queries (also known as 'saved searches') can be defined with a + `query:name` format. The expansion of these queries is stored in the + database and they can be used from any notmuch client. + +Library +------- + +Message property API + + libnotmuch now supports the attachment of arbitrary key-value pairs + to messages. These can be used by various tools to manage their + private data without polluting the user tag space. They also support + iteration of values with the same key or same key prefix. + +Bug fix for `notmuch_directory_set_mtime` + + Update cached mtime to match on-disk mtime. + +CLI +--- + +Support for compile time options + + A group of `built_with` keys is now supported for notmuch + config. Initial keys in this group are `compact`, `field_processor`, + and `retry_lock`. + +Dump/Restore support for configuration information and properties + + Any configuration information stored in the database (initially just + named queries) is dumped and restored. Similarly any properties + attached to messages are also dumped and restored. Any new + information in the dump format is prefixed by '#' to allow existing + scripts to ignore it. + Emacs ----- +Make notmuch-message-mode use insert for fcc + + Notmuch-message-mode now defaults to using notmuch insert for + fcc. The old file based fcc behaviour can be restored by setting the + defcustom `notmuch-maildir-use-notmuch-insert` to nil. + + When using notmuch insert, `notmuch-fcc-dirs` must be a subdirectory + of the mailstore (absolute paths are not permitted) followed by any + tag changes to be applied to the inserted message. The tag changes + are applied after the default tagging for new messages. For example + setting the header to "sentmail -inbox +sent" would insert the + message in the subdirectory sentmail of the mailstore, add the tag + "sent", and not add the (normally added) "inbox" tag. + + Finally, if the insert fails (e.g. if the database is locked) the + user is presented with the option to retry, ignore, or edit the + header. + +Make internal address completion customizable + + There is a new defcustom `notmuch-address-internal-completion` which + controls how the internal completion works: it allows the user to + choose whether to match on messages the user sent, or the user + received, and to filter the messages used for the match, for example + by date. + +Allow internal address completion on an individual basis + + There is a new function `notmuch-address-toggle-internal-completion` + (by default it has no keybinding) which allows users who normally + use an external completion command to use the builtin internal + completion for the current buffer. + + Alternatively, if the user has company-mode enabled, then the user + can use company mode commands such as `company-complete` to + activate the builtin completion for an individual completion. + +Resend messages + + The function `notmuch-show-resend-message` (bound to `b` in show + and tree modes) will (attempt to) send current message to new + recipients. The headers of the message won't be altered (e.g. `To:` + may point to yourself). New `Resent-To:`, `Resent-From:` and so on + will be added instead. + Face customization is easier - New faces `notmuch-search-flagged-face` and - `notmuch-search-unread-face` are used by default by - `notmuch-search-line-faces`. Customize `notmuch-faces` to modify - them. + New faces `notmuch-tag-unread`, `notmuch-tag-flagged`, + `notmuch-tag-deleted`, `notmuch-tag-added`, + `notmuch-search-flagged-face` and `notmuch-search-unread-face` are + now used by default.
