I think I mentioned this on irc sometime ago: would indexing all the headers as a separate free text entry (under headers: for example) satisfy most of this. So then you could search for things like headers:"List-Id: blah" or similar. It is not as nice as individually indexed headers, but it does mean that all notmuch instances would be the same and the same commands would work, the library interface would be consistent etc. Best wishes Mark On Tue, 12 Feb 2013, David Bremner <david@tethera.net> wrote: > Carl Worth <cworth@cworth.org> writes: >> >> It's embarrassing to me that I added this note to the notmuch TODO file >> in October 2009 (and it's still there): >> >> Add support for the user to specify custom headers to be indexed. > > One techicality is that we would presumeably want to support this both > for access via the CLI and via libnotmuch (e.g. for the python > bindings).
