I found

notmuch search --output=files $(date +%s -d 2010-01-01)..$(date +%s -d 2010-12-31)

and how I can create a maildir (http://plasmasturm.org/log/81/)

So now I have to pipe the result from the notmuch command above to mv and move it to
$MAILDIR/ARCHIVE.2010/cur

Is this correct? How can I do this?

Thanks

Rainer
