nottoomuch

misc material i use with notmuch mail indexer

introduction

my personal “extensions” around notmuch mail indexer that are too specific to be added to http://notmuchmail.org/ wiki, with additional scripts that aren't feasible to be stored to the wiki.

address completion:

nottoomuch-addresses | selection-menu

mail sending:

nottoomuch-emacs-mailto_ | nottoomuch-xdg-email <#mail-sending>__

mail delivery:

startfetchmail <#mail-delivery> | md5mda <#mail-delivery>

remote access:

nottoomuch-remote_

building:

make-one-notmuch-el <#building>__

address completion

nottoomuch-addresses_ the address completion provider i use to get list of email addresses from where email addresses is selected when sending emails.

.. _nottoomuch-addresses: nottoomuch-addresses.rst

selection-menu_ the address completion tool i use to complete email addresses when sending emails.

.. _selection-menu: selection-menu.rst

mail sending

nottoomuch-emacs-mailto_ send mail from e.g. following mailto: link in web browsers, using notmuch emacs client.

.. _nottoomuch-emacs-mailto: nottoomuch-emacs-mailto.rst

nottoomuch-xdg-email wrap xdg-email with this (by putting this as xdg-email in $PATH before the system one) so that nottoomuch-emacs-mailto is used as the mailer.

.. _nottoomuch-xdg-email: nottoomuch-xdg-email.sh

mail delivery

startfetchmail_ the fetchmail startup script i use to get it configured as required and to see that startup succeeded (failures due to incorrect password etc).

.. _startfetchmail: startfetchmail.sh

md5mda_ the mail delivery agent i uset to get mails delivered from fetchmail to target directories. mails are finally delivered to subdirs whose first 2 characters are 2 first hexdigits of the md5sum of the file contents and the file name is rest 30 hexdigits of the file md5sum.

startfetchmail provides an example how md5mda is used.

.. _md5mda: md5mda.sh

remote access

nottoomuch-remote_ access notmuch on remote machine using ssh without passwordless login requirement.

.. _nottoomuch-remote: nottoomuch-remote.rst

building

make-one-notmuch-el_ i like to have the notmuch emacs byte-compiled file available as a one file which is easy to carry along. this script combines all notmuch .el files together (with minor adjustments) in suitable order for byte-compilation as one file to succeed. the final one-notmuch.elc is somewhat smaller than all notmuch .elc files separately and may even load a bit faster. i've been using this for quite a long time and have not had problems -- but ymmv with your different setup in case trying this option.

.. _make-one-notmuch-el: build/make-one-notmuch-el.pl

work in progress

some code that has not reached suitable maturity state (I am using to distribute changes to many dev machines) or is lacking reasonable ux/documentation, is located in wip/ <wip/>__ subdictory.

contributing

anything can be sent digitally to the email address below, or the ways any particular code repository interfaces provide (in case i receive email notication). thanks for all contributions i've received so far.

how contributions appear to the repository is another issue. in any case proper attribution is given in all cases (preferably as commit author but sometimes in other ways...).
