My goal is to do something like the following: +notmuch search tag:reply-required and not tag:replied + +which was discussed here: +http://notmuchmail.org/pipermail/notmuch/2010/002558.html + +However, instead of conditioning on tag:reply-required, I would like +to look at this for a specific message. For example, if I write an +important message, I can do the following: +save the message id, and then in 5 days set a cron script to check +whether my message was responded to. If it was not responded to I will +take some action to notify myself (haven't decided what yet). +It is the "If it was not responded to" part that this email thread is +about. I am now realizing that I cannot use mutt's tag "replied" +because I often send and read email from gmail or other IMap clients +(e.g. phone). Because of this (I believe), the reply tag does not get +set when it should (well not "should" but rather "when I want it to"). +For example, I often have + +abc +->def + -> ghi + +where the message def does not have the "replied" tag, even though it +was replied to (ghi replied to it). I think the reason is what I +suggested above. + +Because I cannot use the "replied" tag (unless I have misunderstood), +I thought I could just check using the message id with 'notmuch search +repliedto:', but Suvayu points out that searching for this +is not supported. + +Kind regards, + +Xu
