+My mail yesterday about muting\r
+(id:qf5vazjjciq.fsf@marmstrong-linux.kir.corp.google.com) was in part\r
+motivated by this question:\r
+\r
+Has anybody implemented something like "snooze" in notmuch?\r
+\r
+I think of a "snooze" as a temporary mute.\r
+\r
+The intent would be to hide messages from the inbox until some future\r
+time, upon which they are automatically promoted back into the inbox.\r
+\r
+A more precise spec:\r
+\r
+ - if a new message arrives into a "snoozed" thread it too is snoozed\r
+   and is not tagged 'inbox'.\r
+\r
+ - (perhaps optinoally) unless it is "to me", which always\r
+   auto-unsnoozes the threads it is part of.\r
+\r
+ - when unsnoozed, or when a snooze expires, messages in the thread are\r
+   tagged with inbox.\r
+\r
+The difficulty I have is that notmuch doesn't support tags with\r
+timestamps or numerical values.  It might be possible to snooze based on\r
+fixed intervals.  E.g. one unique "snoozed until" tag per day of the\r
+year.  Using this would require some UI facade.\r
+\r
+\r
+Prior art that I'm aware of:\r
+\r
+a) Google Inbox has snooze.  You choose a time and the thread appears in\r
+   your inbox as "new mail", as if it arrived then.  It appears to be\r
+   implemented as a tag on the thread that suppresses message display by\r
+   the client (e.g. if you view your "Google Inbox" mail in Gmail the\r
+   "snoozed" messages appear there as normal).\r
+\r
+b) in a past life I filtered low priority mail into hourly and daily\r
+   temporary mailboxes, and had cron entries set up to re-incorporate\r
+   those as incoming mail on an hourly/daily basis.  This was a great\r
+   way to encourage myself to batch-process less important mail.\r
