Thanks David,
	$ notmuch dump --output=/tmp/dump
runs without errors, albeit the dumped file is only 6.9MB while the
xapian folder has 851MB. Is this correct?
I can easily rebuild the database even without the dump as I am not
using tags at all by simply deleting the xapian folder, right?

much appreciated!
Peter
