I can understand the desire to keep the number of headers +included in the header block low, but I wonder if this might be a common +enough use-case to suggest its inclusion. + +As a counter-argument, I can see the parallel to spam filtering which +come with their own set of headers that are not special cased by +notmuch, but there seems to be much more variety in headers there - as +well as different user configurations. + +Thank you all for your help, and I'm looking forward to hearing your +thoughts. (I'm not yet subscribed, so please keep me CCed to the +thread.) + +Sincerely, + +-- +Harlan Lieberman-Berg +~hlieberman
