This is an example of a setup where GMail gets synced with a local
Maildir. It also keeps track of GMail labels, that get embedded into the
messages under the header X-Keywords (or whatever labelsheader is set
to), and syncs them back and forth the same way as flags.
The first time it runs on a large repository may take some time as the
labels are read / embedded on every message. Afterwards local label
changes are detected using modification times (much faster):
"""
Modification of message files as labels change? Ugh.
I guess notmuch could read a user configurable header and apply the tags
there, but notmuch modifying the message files is probably not going to
happen.
BR,
Jani.
