| | .TH NOTMUCH-REPLY 1 2011-12-04 "Notmuch 0.10.2"
.SH NAME
notmuch-reply \- Constructs a reply template for a set of messages.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B notmuch reply
.RI "[" options "...] <" search-term ">..."
.SH DESCRIPTION
Constructs a reply template for a set of messages.
To make replying to email easier,
.B notmuch reply
takes an existing set of messages and constructs a suitable mail
template. The Reply-to header (if any, otherwise From:) is used for
the To: address. Vales from the To: and Cc: headers are copied, but
not including any of the current user's email addresses (as configured
in primary_mail or other_email in the .notmuch\-config file) in the
recipient list
It also builds a suitable new subject, including Re: at the front (if
not already present), and adding the message IDs of the messages being
replied to to the References list and setting the In\-Reply\-To: field
correctly.
Finally, the original contents of the emails are quoted by prefixing
each line with '> ' and included in the body.
The resulting message template is output to stdout.
Supported options for
.B reply

See \fBnotmuch-search-terms\fR(7)
for details of the supported syntax for <search-terms>.
Note: It is most common to use
.B "notmuch reply"
with a search string matching a single message, (such as
id:<message-id>), but it can be useful to reply to several messages at
once. For example, when a series of patches are sent in a single
thread, replying to the entire thread allows for the reply to comment
on issue found in multiple patches.
