True - and nice for archiving emails. But I think the sync would be tremendiously useful. And as
in another email noted by Jeremy Nickurak, gmail and notmuch are a perfect match as they both
operate on labels / tags, and not on folders. This is in contrast to mu, for which the gmail
labels are just another search term and not differentiated from any other terms.
