+\r
+This looks pretty good now; I player quite a bit with --client,\r
+--create-frame and --auto-daemon \r
+(with and without setting EMACSCLIENT='echo emacsclient')\r
+\r
+Based on that I think this check should be added here (after option\r
+parsing):\r
+\r
+if [ -n "$AUTO_DAEMON" -a -z "$CREATE_FRAME" ]; then\r
+ echo "$0: --auto-daemon is only applicable with --create-frame." >&2\r
+ exit 1 \r
+fi\r
+\r
+without this one may execute ./notmuch-emacs-mua --client --auto-daemon\r
+which yields starting emacs in daemon mode (in this example it is expected\r
+emacs is not running; otherwise --auto-daemon has no use in this example)\r
+-- but no ui to that newly-running emacs is provided. Similar behaviour\r
+can be observed by the following\r
+\r
+$ emacsclient --eval '(kill emacs) ;; but beware! ' \r
+$ emacsclient --alternate-editor= --eval '(find-file "/etc/passwd")'\r
+\r
+(side note: using this --alternate-editor= is pretty nifty way to get it done)\r
+\r
+emacs --daemon is executed which loaded /etc/passwd but w/o ui\r
+\r
+Note the difference in:\r
+\r
+emacsclient --alternate-editor= /etc/passwd\r
+\r
+now emacs --daemon is executed *and* ui where /etc/passwd is available is\r
+provided!\r
+\r
+otoh,\r
+emacsclient --alternate-editor= -c [-nw] --eval '(find-file "/etc/passwd")'\r
+\r
+works fine, albeit a bit different than the one where /etc/passwd was given\r
+as a simple filename argument.\r
+\r
+comparative to ./notmuch-emacs-mua --client --create-frame --auto-daemon \r

+\r
+I am not very happy that message-exit-actions was added to $ELISP when\r
+not using emacsclient; when emacs is started its sole (initial) purpose is\r
+to serve mail sending (and not lending a frame in some other emacs) -- in\r
