Subject: [PATCH v5 08/12] config: define new option index.try_decrypt
Date: Sun, 15 Oct 2017 02:48:03 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171015064807.14205-9-dkg@fifthhorseman.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171015064807.14205-1-dkg@fifthhorseman.net>

By default, notmuch won't try to decrypt on indexing.  With this
patch, we make it possible to indicate a per-database preference using
the config variable "index.try_decrypt", which by default will be
false.

+        set to true, notmuch will try to decrypt the message and index
+        the cleartext.  Be aware that the index is likely sufficient
