Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Add notmuch-search-unthread-thread
Date: Thu, 7 Dec 2023 18:02:46 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231207170247.504315-1-sandra.snan@idiomdrottning.org> (raw)
I'm in threads with many thousands of emails. So with this new
`notmuch-search-unthread-thread`, I can be in my normal daily
notmuch-search of tag:inbox and tag:personal and if I put my cursor on
at rhead and then run this command, I get a buffer with the messages
from that thread in a flat list. (Because so huge are the threads that
`notmuch-tree-from-search-thread` can't handle them either.)
And then from that "exploded view" of a thread I can go to messages
one at a time in a non-borking way and then hit q to go back to the
exploded view.
