+Hi,\r
+\r
+I think it will be nice if we can have a guide/tutorial like\r
+documentation for new users. For myself, I have the following\r
+questions (I am an alpine user previously, so some of the\r
+questions are not related to notmuch directly):\r
+\r
+1. What's the most efficient way to sync mails from my gmail\r
+account to a local Maildir? I've tried offlineimap but it\r
+keeps crashing python (!) on my system (python 2.6, Mac OS X\r
+10.6.2).\r
+\r
+2. How to add notmuch.el into my .emacsrc?\r
+\r
+I know notmuch feels like a tool for geeks, but it will probably\r
+lower the barrier if someone can provide such a guide in a\r
+straightforward, step-by-step way.\r
