These scripts reside -in the .notmuch/hooks directory within the database directory and must -have executable permissions. +in a directory defined as described in :any:`notmuch-config(1)`. They +must have executable permissions. The currently available hooks are described below. - **pre-new** - This hook is invoked by the **new** command before scanning or - importing new messages into the database. If this hook exits - with a non-zero status, notmuch will abort further processing of - the **new** command. - - Typically this hook is used for fetching or delivering new mail - to be imported into the database. +pre-new + This hook is invoked by the :any:`notmuch-new(1)` command before + scanning or importing new messages into the database.
