The words are stored unstemmed as well, so in principle we could extract those and do some kind of fuzzy search on them to construct queries. This is what notmuch already does for regex searches on fields other than from, subject, and mid. The reason this is not too attractive for the message body is that it works on a per word basis, and most uses of regex (although not the one under discussion) involve matching multiple words. Currently Xapian only supports trailing wildcards (which would not help here), but we could do that for body words. It just doesn't (or hasn't) seemed like such a common use case. Alas, none of the forward looking discussion really helps the original poster. _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list -- notmuch@notmuchmail.org To unsubscribe send an email to notmuch-leave@notmuchmail.org
