Display search results as single messages #269

Open mxmehl opened 7 years ago

mxmehl commented 7 years ago

It would be awesome to optionally see the results of search queries as individual messages instead of the threads containing a matching message. This would come in handy when you have multiple matching giant mail threads and look for a single message in them with multiple queries, for example tag:flagged AND from:someguy AND contact.

notmuch allows to see single messages' ids by adding --output=messages to the search query. But astroid doesn't seem to understand such options.

Related to #100.

I would like this too, it would be good to be able to toggle the thread-index between thread and message view (either with a tree view of the messages, or flat).

That would be nice as well!

That's definitely an interesting alternative use. I hope it won't be too much effort to implement or require strange tweaks in the rest of astroid!

I was also just trying to achieve that and now found this issue. If it would be possible to toggle between thread and message view, that would be very helpful. Thanks for considering it.
