+i think the point here is that gmime used to support parsing them and \r
+now it doesn't.\r
+\r
+So if you've got a pre-existing notmuch index (built from when gmime \r
+*did* parse them) and you're now running notmuch linked against a gmime \r
+that *doesn't* parse them, then notmuch search will produce references \r
+to messages that notmuch show can't produce output for.\r
+\r
+While i appreciate wanting to be sure that we're working with \r
+well-formed files, I don't have a good answer for what the right thing \r
+to do is, if gmime upstream agrees with your assessment of the situation.\r
