+\r
+This does seem to be a regression in gmime 2.6. I've reported the bug\r
+upstream, along with a simplified (non-notmuch) demonstration:\r
+\r
+ https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D671680\r
+\r
+We'll see what gmime's upstream has to say about it.\r
+\r
+As a devil's advocate, i could argue that a message in a maildir that\r
+starts with a "From " line isn't a proper e-mail message in the first\r
+place, and therefore gmime 2.6 is being more rigorously correct about\r
+what it accepts. In particular, if a user were to place a multi-message\r
+mbox file in their notmuch message store, i think that notmuch linked\r
+against 2.4 would happily index only the first message of it, and the\r
+rest of the message would be "hidden", whereas gmime 2.6 allows us to\r
+detect these failures and avoid indexing them directly.\r
+\r
+That said, i understand that this is probably not an entirely rare\r
+situation, and i lean toward the idea that gmime 2.4's behavior was\r
+actually the Right Thing. Also, I haven't been able to find any\r
+explicit documentation to indicate that the behavior change was\r
+a deliberate one.\r
+\r
+I'm happy to relay any helpful or constructive suggestions to the gmime\r
+upstream ticket, if folks don't want to deal with bugzilla directly.\r
