This requires recent Xapian (1.4+) See notmuch-search-terms(7) for details. -Emacs Interface ---------------- +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 + +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 - Save and resume messages in `notmuch-message-mode` (composition). + 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.
