 *
 * NOTMUCH_STATUS_FILE_NOT_EMAIL: A file was presented that doesn't

 *
 * NOTMUCH_STATUS_DUPLICATE_MESSAGE_ID: A file contains a message ID

 *
 * NOTMUCH_STATUS_NULL_POINTER: The user erroneously passed a NULL
 *	pointer to a notmuch function.
 *
 * NOTMUCH_STATUS_TAG_TOO_LONG: A tag value is too long (exceeds

 *
 * NOTMUCH_STATUS_UNBALANCED_FREEZE_THAW: The notmuch_message_thaw
 *	function has been called more times than notmuch_message_freeze.

 *
 * NOTMUCH_STATUS_LAST_STATUS: Not an actual status value. Just a way
