+Hi Adam,\r
+\r
+interestingly, your 'G' short-cut hint works out of the box! What\r
+happens is, that when one presses 'G', this invokes\r
+notmuch-hello-poll-and-update. This function calls 'notmuch-poll',\r
+which does exactly what I want. I.e. it runs 'notmuch new' if no polling\r
+script is specified. In my case however this invokes 'remote-notmuch\r
+new' which asks notmuch installed at the server to tag new\r
+emails. Lovely. (footnote: It suits me excellently because I'm not\r
+seeking for 'mail push' service and rather read my emails whenever I\r
+decide to do and not whenever an email arrives - this is why I consider\r
+not calling notmuch-poll before every invocation of (notmuch) not as a\r
+bug, but just minor annoyance which can be tweaked away if desired)\r
+\r
+\r
+There is just one slightly weird thing. This is when 'notmuch' is\r
+opened, the focus goes directly to search button instead of 'inbox'\r
+messages (or something else), which is imho more interesting than going into search. Because\r
+at first what one wants to do is to look into new emails. Another\r
+disadvantage of going directly into search box is, that all shortcuts\r
+get inhibited. Is there any way how to set default focus to something\r
+else? \r
+\r
+thanks a lot\r
+\r
+david\r
