> What's your favorite thing about notmuch?
a. that it's an important step forward towards a completely

b. that it is implemented with a library, a UI, and clients on top,
rather than directly as a GUI. ;)
> What about notmuch makes it distinctive compared to other email

the prospect of tags and fast search, accessible in a way to make
integration with other programs possible.
> If someone were to implement a new email system from scratch, but

simplicity and search. Ideally, however, it would be implemented
such that synchronising between different machines were a core
