+Currently we have to enter mail dates as timestamps. This approach does 2 things: 1) it requires the prefix 'date:'\r
+2) it allows dates to be specified in some formats. So a notmuch show date:2005..2006-05-12 will find all mails from 2005-01-01 until 2006-05-12.\r
+The code is probably not in a proper location yet and needs to be shoved around by someone more knowledgable than me.\r
+My C++ skills are somewhat,... lacking...\r
+\r
+Possible time formats: YYYY-MM-DD,YYYY-MM (in that month) , YYYY (in that year)\r
+MM-DD (month-day in current year), DD (day in current month)\r
