+I like to ignore annoying threads, but notmuch has not easy way to\r
+achieve it, right? Well, it actually has...\r
+\r
+1) ok, in notmuch-show I read a message, decide the thread is uninteresting\r
+(or annoying) and tag that message as "ignore".\r
+\r
+2) Adding "and not tag:ignore in my saved searches doesn't help as there\r
+are still messages without tag ignore, so notmuch search will still show\r
+the threads. So I run this now after notmuch new: TADAA...\r
+\r
+notmuch tag +ignore -- not tag:ignore and `notmuch search\r
+--output=threads tag:ignore`\r
+\r
+It seems to work, afterwords all messages in a thread where at least one\r
+message was tagges "ignore" will be tagged "ignore" and my saved\r
+searches suppress them.\r
+\r
+Just wanted to share this tidbit as I can imagine plenty of usecases\r
+where a similar scheme could be handy.\r
