Subject: [notmuch] [PATCH] notmuch.el: patch notmuch-show to call notmuch
	show without query-context (i.e. without tag:inbox) if the
	first query returns nothing.
Precedence: list

From: David Bremner <bremner@unb.ca>

This fixes the annoying bug of archiving a thread, and then going back
to open it and getting an error.  It needs the notmuch-show API
changing patch of 1259979997-31544-3-git-send-email-david@tethera.net.

I'm not really expecting Carl to push this patch, because I think he
has a better solution in mind, but in the mean time maybe someone
finds it useful. It is saving my sanity already, since in wanderlust
 'a' = reply :).
