Yes. Many times (I'm reading my mail in emacs after every notmuch new
occuring like every 5 min in average ;-)

Hmmm... Dunno how I could try to investigate more.

I'm using a local dovecot as a mail storage backend, which is in turn
indexed my botmuch... any particular thing related to dovecot flags
handling maybe (i.e. deleted tag being passed to dovecot) ?

Thanks in advance.
