+Hey, I'm playing around with the head of the git repository\r
+(bc64cdce289d84be2550c4fccb1f008d15eaeb0e) to try to figure out how the\r
+new folder: prefixes work, as folders are a critical part of how I\r
+organize my mail.  (Since tags are not hierarchical, folders are the\r
+best way for me to group mail to a bunch of related addresses, while\r
+retaining the ability to separate out any mailboxes that become high\r
+traffic.)\r
+\r
+I'm using a pretty standard maildir++ layout.  For example, underneath\r
+my database.path I have a bunch of mail in directories such as:\r
+\r
+    .INBOX.Main/{new,cur}\r
+    .mail.class/{new,cur}\r
+    .mail.voicemail/{new,cur}\r
+\r
+It used to be the case that if I wanted to read all of my "mail" mail, I\r
+could search for folder:mail, while to look at just voicemail, I could\r
+say folder:mail.voicemail, etc.  Now, I can't get anything to match a\r
+folder predicate period.  For example, using notmuch as notmuch-0.17 and\r
+./notmuch as notmuch-0.18-rc2+2~gbc64cdc, here's what I get:\r
+\r
+        linux2$ notmuch count folder:mail\r
+        16257\r
+        linux3$ notmuch count folder:mail.class\r
+        1896\r
+        linux4$ notmuch count folder:mail.voicemail\r
+        34\r
+        linux5$ notmuch count folder:mail.voicemail/cur\r
+        34\r
+        linux6$ notmuch count folder:.mail.voicemail/cur\r
+        34\r
+        linux7$ ./notmuch count folder:mail\r
+        0\r
+        linux8$ ./notmuch count folder:.mail\r
+        0\r
+        linux9$ ./notmuch count folder:.mail.voicemail\r
+        0\r
+        linux10$ ./notmuch count folder:.mail.voicemail/cur\r
+        0\r
+        linux 11$ ./notmuch count path:.mail.voicemail\r
+        0\r
+        linux 12$ ./notmuch count path:.mail.voicemail/'**'\r
+        0\r
+        linux 13$ ./notmuch count path:.mail.voicemail/cur \r
+        0\r
+        linux 14$ ./notmuch count folder:mail.voicemail\r
+        0\r
+\r
+What gives?  Are the path and folder predicates completely broken, or is\r
+something very important missing from the new notmuch-search-terms\r
+manual page?  How can I make this work?\r
+\r
+Thanks,\r
+David\r
