+.TH NOTMUCH-INSERT 1 2012-xx-xx "Notmuch 0.xx"
+.SH NAME
+notmuch-insert \- add a message to the maildir and notmuch database
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+.B notmuch insert
+.RI "[" options "]"
+.RI "--"
+.RI "[ +<" tag> "|\-<" tag "> ... ]"
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+
+.B notmuch insert
+reads a message from standard input and delivers it to the specified
+maildir folder, then incorporates the message into the notmuch
+database.  It is an alternative to using a separate tool to deliver
+the message then running
+.B notmuch new
+afterwards.
+
+The new message will be tagged with the tags specified by the
+.B new.tags
+configuration option.
+Additional tagging operations may be specified on the command-line.
+Tags prefixed by '+' are added while those prefixed by '\-' are
+removed.  notmuch will warn about ambiguous tag removal arguments
+which may be confused with option arguments.  It is recommended to use
+the option list terminator "--" to avoid ambiguity.
+
+Supported options for
+.B insert
+include
+.RS 4
+.TP 4
+.BI "--folder=<" folder ">"
+
+Deliver the message to the
+.RI Maildir/ folder
+directory, which must already exist.
+The default is to deliver to the top-level directory.
