+I'm having a problem with "notmuch show" producing too many results.\r
+\r
+Can somebody tell me how to "notmuch show" only emails that a specific tag?\r
+\r
+\r
+Specifics (linux mint, emacs 24.3.1):\r
+\r
+I run this tagging query at the command line:\r
+\r
+ > notmuch tag +xyz -- '(to:xyz@me.com or from:xyz@me.com or cc:xyz@me.com)'\r
+\r
+In emacs, notmuch-hello, I search\r
+\r
+   tag:xyz\r
+\r
+and I get a buffer of emails that I expect.\r
+\r
+Then, I run on the command line:\r
+\r
+ > notmuch show --format=mbox "tag:xyz" >xyz-all.txt\r
+\r
+the resulting xyz-all.txt contains many other emails (e.g. spam from \r
+linkedin, etc).\r
+\r
+\r
+In the end, I want to create a new gmail account containing only the \r
+above tagged emails.  I will upload it with:\r
+\r
+ > python imap_upload.py --gmail --box inbox --error Friends.err --user \r
+xyz --password xyz xyz-all.txt\r
+\r
+I did this several years ago and see, from my scripts, that I had the \r
+same problem.  I worked around it by clearing tags, then creating an \r
+exclusion tag and tagging everything with that and, etc. ...  I would \r
+prefer to know how to do this exactly, this time.\r
+\r
+\r
+Thanks in advance for any advice!\r
+\r
+pt\r
