+Hi Phil,\r
+\r
+Quoting Philippe LeCavalier (2012-03-03 18:37:32)\r
+>I can't tell if it's _all_ killed mails but I can say for sure that some\r
+>tagged mails reappear in the inbox despite them tagged 'killed' and the\r
+>search mode filter is inbox AND NOT tag:killed.\r
+\r
+I presume by reappear you mean that once you receive another mail of that t=\r
+hread,\r
+the thread ends up in your inbox again?\r
+\r
+You should be aware that tag "killed" is not special in any kind, nor is "i=\r
+nbox":\r
+They are just strings attached to mails that make it easier for you to filt=\r
+er\r
+your mailboxes.\r
+\r
+The feature you might expect: threads tagged "killed" once will never pop u=\r
+p in your inbox\r
+is not a feature of notmuch or alot; it *might* be a feature of your taggin=\r
+g script\r
+if you decide to organize your mails like that.\r
+\r
+I can highly recommend Justus' "afew" tagging script https://github.com/tey=\r
+thoon/afew,\r
+which can be configured to provide above mentioned functionality among othe=\r
+r things.\r
+For other solutions have a look at http://notmuchmail.org/initial_tagging/.\r
+\r
+Best,\r
+/p\r
