+Hello all,\r
+\r
+I have a situation where sometimes I sync a later message. For\r
+example, the following happens on times:\r
+\r
+1a. sync message 1.\r
+1b. not much new\r
+2a. sync message 3 (which replied to message 2)\r
+2b. not much new\r
+3. sync message 2 (which replied to message 1)\r
+3b. not much new\r
+\r
+This happens because of my workflow of offlineimap. It takes a long\r
+time to sync some folders so often I prefer to skip, but sometimes\r
+they contain replies.\r
+\r
+When I do that, notmuch does not correctly construct the linkages. I\r
+think this is understandable and I blame my workflow more than\r
+notmuch. notmuch wants to be as fast as possible so when it processes\r
+message 2 in step 3b, it does not check message 3 because it already\r
+checked message 3 in 2b so I think it skips it. Do I have correct\r
+understanding of the situation?\r
+\r
+Is there a config setting that I can put to ask notmuch to look both\r
+ways (even at cost of spending more time)? i.e. I want notmuch in step\r
+3b to search through all previous messages to see if they replied to\r
+it.\r
+\r
+Kind regards,\r
+\r
+Xu\r
