search for folder #705

Hi, I read, that with notmuch one can search for mails by folders doku.

How would I search for folders in Astroid?

I tried folder:accountname.subfolder

My mails are stored in ~/mails/accountname1, ~/mails/accountname2, etc.

maybe path:accountname1/**

Yes, path:accountname1/** works, thank you for the hint!

But I cannot make it work for subfolders like path:accountname1/Junk.

Does it work for you? Did you try the "folder:"-synthax on your machine?

I'm not sure

When in terminal: notmuch search folder:accountname/Junk gets me a list of junk mail from that folder.

Also in Astroid it works with folder:accountname/Junk

To get the right path terminal auto completion for notmuch is helpful.
