+\r
+Not quite sure. Currently I'm not doing this, don't know if this is\r
+possible within a single incantation of notmuch-tag. I think you\r
+probably need a first search to get message ids, and then tag only those\r
+message ids (doing it like the others above would tag all messages in\r
+the thread with sent, which is probably not what you want).\r
