I actually discovered notmuch after I installed home-manager for NixOS (it's a tool that manages your home dir with reproducible deterministic config generation), set up my email via it and then wondered how does this work. Skimmed the documentation and learned about notmuch. Then I learned about mail tagging, tried it and suddenly it was fun. I started tweaking my mail script, learned about afew and now it tags all my mail automatically - the only tags I need to use manually are `spam`, `unread`, `watch` (watch-tag workflow copied from this mailing list archive), `inbox` and... that's all. Everything else gets sorted out automatically. Well, yeah, full disclosure - I'm a hobbyist programmer (note to self: strike out the "hobbyist" part when I finish my education). So I guess not everyone can follow in my footsteps. But from an email noob I got to fully automated email sorting. It even is kinda compatible with my old email client on my phone (because afew can move mails after auto-tagging them). _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch
