It might be best to show the messages in the thread – after all, you might want to “undelete” (or “unspam”) those messages in light of later replies to them. (And if you are sure you really want them gone, you should be deleting them or moving them out of your maildir periodically, rather than relying on notmuch to not show them to you ever.) (Perhaps another application of this functionality would be to “mute” certain threads on a mailing list. Then you could use a query for “word-i-am-interested-in AND tag:muted” to find out if something interesting pops up in a muted thread. Then in the show view, you will want to unmute the other thread messages.) Perhaps this could be an application of dme’s header-line collapsing functionality in id:"cun8vl5m610.fsf@hotblack-desiato.hh.sledj.net" (suitably cleaned up), such that you see only a single line in the show buffer that says: ----- 6 messages hidden ----- instead of the 6 (or however many) individual messages. -- Aaron Ecay
