74 thanks for your response. I am evaluating notmuch / xapian for building an
\r
75 application for analyzing in various ways a fairly large number of emails
\r
76 accumulated over several years. I am afraid the number of headers that
\r
77 would ultimately need to be indexed is therefore quite a lot larger than
\r
78 what notmuch currently indexes.
