Is there any good documentation on neomutt's notmuch support beyond what
is on their website? I currently use alot for its great notmuch support
(in particular tag completion with search and tag inyterfaces, multiple
"tabs"/views) but find myself switching to neomutt for its better mime
support (plus s/mime) and features like thread split & join, so far
mostly maildir backed. neomutt's doc probably tell you everything you
need to know to set up a notmuch-friendly user experience, but ...
I know multiple views will not be a thing in neomutt. Easy tagging and
nm-based search are a must, though. Being able to switch to the "maildir
view" of a message (so that you can rearrange messages within your
maildir folder tree) would be a plus.
