Hi,

To get notmuch to correctly identify me as the sender or recipient of
messages, I need to configure my primary and alternate email addresses -
however, I use extension addresses extensively (such as for subscribing to
this list...).  So in theory, I have an indeterminate number of addresses that
are "me", and in practice, it's at least several hundred I've actually used
(and adding new ones a few times a month on average).

Listing all of these addresses in the other_email configuration would be
painful, and would require constant maintenance as I use new addresses with
new businesses, mailing lists, etc.

I've searched the list archives but have only found references to setting
user.other_email to a list of actual addresses.  Is there a way to have a
wildcard, glob, or regex serve as the configuration for other_email?  Have I
missed something in the documentation?

Thanks,

Charles
