The message +deletion is still a problem though, I can see two options at the moment: + +a) output during notmuch new to a hook or a list somewhere deleted files. + if list: notmuch will not handle this list, only append to it and +the user must + purge it when it is safe to do so. + + if hook: for my purposes I would just create a hook appending to the + list. as a minimum I think thread_id, message_id and revision number + should be included. + + +b) maintain a full list of deleted / dead messages. a user initiated + purge can clean this from the database. a tag could be used for this, + so that clients can ignore unlinked/deleted/dead messages. this + differs from a 'deleted' message (IMAP/Maildir context) that has not + yet been expunged so there is confusion to be avoided. + + a garbage collection function and interface must also be set up, but + this one is probably simple. + + +in most cases I think a) would be sufficient, and probably much easier +to do. it might be slow in cases where large amounts of messages have been +deleted, but this is seldom the case for me at least. + +cheers, gaute -- 2.26.2
