Hi

I am using notmuch in emacs, and I linkt from my notes in org mode to emails using the thread: id
or the message id. Is there a possibility to get these from within emacs, or do I have to go to
the cli from notmuch?

Thanks,

Rainer

As far as I'm aware, org-notmuch does all that for you.  Do you need it
for something else?  You can always look at org-notmuch source.

Actually, you might be right. But then it seems, I somehow haven't loaded org-notmuch.el properly
- - I guess I am miaaing something at this step.

But it also seems that org-notmuch-search-store-link stores the search string and not the thread
or message id?

Thanks,

Rainer

AFAIU, it does that when you call org-store-link in a search buffer.  If
you do that in the message buffer, it stores the message id.

From the search buffer:

[[notmuch-search:from:myfriend%2520is:inbox][Notmuch search: from:myfriend is:inbox]]

From the message buffer:

[[notmuch:id:C8BF5B7C-6F2E-4754-B27D-A828D894B7EA@gmail.com][Email from Myfriend]]

Hope this helps,

You want "c i"

From NEWS for 0.15

Support for stashing the thread id in show view

  Invoking `notmuch-show-stash-message-id` with a prefix argument
  stashes the (local and database specific) thread id of the current
  thread instead of the message id.

By the way, the library org-notmuch distributed with org-mode should
make it easy to link into notmuch.

Be aware that thread id's are not preserved across dump-restore cycles,
so it is safer to link to message-ids.

Thanks - that is what I was looking for.

Then I probably haven't loaded org-notmuch properly? What do I have to put into my .emacs file to
load it properly?

Thanks - important info - I'll use the message id then instead.

Cheers,

I put what I know at 

  http://notmuchmail.org/emacstips/#index24h2

It's a bit Debian specific at the moment, but hopefully others can fill
in the details for other environments.

Thanks - got it working under Ubuntu. One thing: in my org from git, org-notmuch is in
.../org-mode/contrib/lisp and not .../lisp

Thanks a lot,

Rainer

My following comment is probably OT, but still ...

If you install org-mode from git following the instructions from the
Makefile, then you should be putting something like the following in
your local.mk.

  # Define if you want to include some (or all) files from contrib/lisp
  # just the filename please (no path prefix, no .el suffix), maybe with
  # globbing
  ORG_ADD_CONTRIB = org-notmuch

If you do that, then David's instructions are accurate.

Hope this helps,
