## Actual behavior

Notmuch indexes all messages including the replied content.

This is a problem because when one searches for a message with content, we get all emails replying to it.

m1 with "foobar"
-> m2 with "> foobar"
-> m3 with ">> foobar"

search("foobar") = = [m1, m2, m3]

In the case of dozens of messages in a thread, one does not know which one to open.

## Expected behavior

Notmuch indexes messages after having stripped the original.

search("foobar") = = [m1] 

## Notes

There are different libraries for stripping the replied message. For example

Python: https://github.com/zapier/email-reply-parser
