+This series is an attempt to add thread recipients to the search\r
+output.\r
+\r
+My personal overall goal of this series is to support the handling of\r
+drafts in the emacs ui.  For drafts we want to see recipients, instead\r
+of authors, in the search output.  I can imagine other uses for this\r
+series as well, though.\r
+\r
+The first four patches generalize the author list handling in thread\r
+objects to handle any address list.  These patches could be applied\r
+regardless of if the rest of the series is accepted.\r
+\r
+After that we modify the thread constructor such that it can hold\r
+thread recipients as well.  Since there is overhead in retrieving\r
+thread recipients from the message files (recipients are not stored in\r
+the database) this is handled with a switch.\r
+\r
+Further patches add the new switch to the search CLI that adds thread\r
+recipients to the structured output formats.  I didn't modify the text\r
+output format, since there is no way to extend it.  I can imagine\r
+tweaking the text output such that the author field is instead\r
+replaced by the recipients (as is done for the emacs UI at the end of\r
+the series), but that's not done here.\r
+\r
+In the emacs UI, I add a new toggle function that will toggle display\r
+of thread authors or recipients in the 'authors' field of the search\r
+output.  It's unfortunate that this ambiguity in that field name\r
+remains, but I didn't know how to change that cleanly.  I'm working on\r
+some tests for the new emacs functionality that I'll include in the\r
+inevitable v2 of this series.\r
+\r
+The last patch is mostly just a tickle to suggest adding the\r
+recipients to the database.  It would make the --include-recipient\r
+searches much faster of course, but it might be overhead in the\r
+database that folks aren't interested in.\r
+\r
+As always, feedback, review, and comments are much appreciated.\r
+\r
+jamie.\r
