I'm actually completely lost now, since I've realised you'= +;re also OP,
+and it was my understanding that you proposed to use offlineimap to get
+the tags, save them in the X-something header, and make notmuch index
+those.  But now you're saying that offlineimap is not needed? &nbs= +p;I must be
+missing something.

I saw on the offlineimap mailin= +g list, that somebody is using this approach (x-header) to sync the gmail l= +abels and to use them in his email client - so I thought, why not read them= + as tags into notmuch and sync tgs back, so one would have a sync between n= +otmuch tags and gmail labels. But there was some objections and it was ques= +tioned why offlineimap for this, and not notmuch - and frankly, I don't= + hava any preferences. If it is i[plemented in offlineimap and notmuch uses= + it, fine with me. If offlineimap stays as it is and notmuch reads the labe= +ls directly, absolutely no problem. I am merely intersted in the outcome - = +sync of notmuch tags with gmail labels - whatever the path is.

Sure, but I don't think it's such a big issue, as it may be p= +resented.
+If there was some better, not much more difficult, option, than sure,
+but otherwise, I think it's a good solution.
