Thank you for the suggestion. I did considered muchsync, but I ruled
against it for two reasons. First, it is an extra program that is not
packaged on my system (macos) so I need to compile it (I agree it is a
small reason and I could attempt it, but my previous experience with
compiling things on the mac was not great). Second, and more
importantly, it seems that muchsync has to copy the mail files, so only
one machine should fetch mail. This is a showstopper for me, and looking
at previous discussion about it
(https://yhetil.org/notmuch/87mup3bqmh.fsf@ra.horus-it.com/t/) did not
help.

I guess I should just bite the bullet, make copious backups and play
with notmuch-git. I’m wondering if others are currently using it.

Best,

Alan
