+Hi,\r
+\r
+I have hit a weird behaviour with notmuch.\r
+\r
+I recently saw a drop of the number of messages in my index, and after\r
+doing a backup of the current state of the index, I am able to reproduce\r
+this behaviour fairly consistently. ie: notmuch is purgin at least 50%\r
+of its index of messages that are still in the maildir.\r
+\r
+I do the following:\r
+\r
+1. remove my notmuch database completely.\r
+2. launching `notmuch new`:\r
+\r
+ Found 42059 total files (that's not much mail).\r
+ Processed 42059 total files in 3m 24s (205 files/sec.).\r
+ Added 41331 new messages to the database.\r
+\r
+3. launching `notmuch new` right after, without having done anything else\r
+ on my Maildir folder:\r
+\r
+ Cleaned up 5 of 156 directories (1m 9s remaining). \r
+ No new mail. Removed 22211 messages. Detected 378 file renames.\r
+\r
+Then I can loop back to step 1 and reproduce the behaviour every single time.\r
+\r
+If I keep a window with Notmuch Emacs in it, I can see some e-mail\r
+disapearing, and search not returning result anymore after the second\r
+notmuch new.\r
+\r
+Is it a know bug? A feature that I do not understand? Anyway, this make\r
+notmuch almost unusable right now, since I can't have acces to my full\r
+e-mail history, and I endup with conversations with holes in them.\r
+\r
+Regards,\r
+\r
