HI,

I was wondering if it was possible to add the text extracted from an
attachment to the search index?

For the moment let's leave aside the important issues like - security,
buffer overflows, clients having to install
doc2text/pandoc/pdftotext/whatever...


I *think* I'm trying to ask - How can I take a lump of text (e.g. from an
attachment) and associate it with a message ID so I can then search for it?

Is this a notmuch command, or a Xapien command?


Thanks!
