\r
60 I see, you're talking about this "dovecot-keywords" file I guess
\r
62 http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/Maildir
\r
64 Some questions that spring to mind:
\r
66 - This is clearly dovecot specific; I wonder what fraction of
\r
67 our users would benefit. I suppose that's a question about any scheme
\r
68 involving maildir-flags a-z; at least those can be synchronized ootb
\r
71 - Notmuch new currently only indexes one copy of a message, so two files
\r
72 in different maildirs (i.e. a list and inbox) would be pretty much a
\r
73 crapshoot which tags get applied. We intend to change this behaviour
\r
74 eventually, but no one is working on it currently.
\r
76 - even if/when this behaviour changes, there is still the problem of
\r
77 reconciling different tag mappings from several maildirs.
\r
79 On the other hand, maybe not much change to the notmuch core would be
\r
80 needed to at least experiment with this, using e.g. hooks to
\r
81 notmuch-insert and notmuch-new.
