Hello all,
New notmuch convert here.
I want to find all emails in the INBOX folder for one of my maildir offline email accounts.
I'm running :
notmuch search --output=files --format=text folder:user@domain/INBOX
For this query I get results mixed in from user@domain/Sent folder in addition to expected results from the INBOX folder.
For similar query to a different otheruser@otherdomain/INBOX folder I also get results mixed in from various different folders.
Can you advise?
Thank you!
Yevgen

Thank you, David! I don't quite understand the logic behind this behavior, but for my purposes I will just grep the notmuch output go the limit the results to the target folder.
