Hi,

I've been consistently getting an error of this form:

andy@andy-x200:~/work/talks/2017/icps$ notmuch new 
Processed 230 total files in 7s (29 files/sec.).
Added 212 new messages to the database. Removed 85 messages. Detected 18 file renames.
Error: A Xapian exception occurred flushing database: Value in posting list too large.

...and it seems that, since I've been getting this error, new emails
are not reliably being found by, for example M-x notmuch in emacs.

Can anyone help?

Best
