Hey, Marten. Thanks for the reply. The problem I have with only returning one of the redundant messages is that I don't think anyone could ever really convince me that notmuch has the ability to decide which of the redundant messages is the *right* one to return. I think notmuch is currently just returning the first one it indexes, but why is that better than returning the one most recently indexed? A policy of only returning one is going to be problematic for folks who want or expect to see the other. And in fact think I want to see both. I have both, and I've asked notmuch to index both, so why shouldn't it return both in a search? jamie. --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJLbFoiAAoJEO00zqvie6q8cNgP/jE2Saj7zDn8MbGSQmVryCfh J2kGCGmhYFTCEuzlt8QvbKFT27i4Z2Fre5Apz4M0NwcGimMqYyQ3W3YDMsqUCfqA 4kHVZLjH+/Ee7t9Z5NGGqoRkt9nSWjCT7qeM2A4/vVgQrbkU4qN6y6MXCc+hX24o Uyx+WORNC06W9dnU8Pnhrz9gBKPaI3BCY5zhtdyqr77tuWaQazoAfspZ3wJRkJub O6eZYZdKFc+whsSOFfzCX9KeQ7+G1tYP2bjjL5DYhiJR7cYPXN8dfHOawY/2zyzz GF32eT229v+bB+4auMEXI7nIO9eJ6us6KglNXQghwUi9JUX3aFXxEyqwOVankCHU 9MyZ+npLh6o3IaLBTi4fL73JPMYO+FxbJoHq4u42M0yk/2isCT/ejOKZ1b8+E6S/ o2CIatckE1NDzFM4rWnrFmfBIp3GbSbOEjo8t690D/glGq2OdRcyA0j6W8h+gmB5 jw0I+AB9t+rX/x6Th1QOOHyQSWuw0jePrysaon2pS4fjW0Q7SbqIXHxVSmq+mi6F GX89alCQxmpL8RE9NGjA5T+FKr+7Nl9ZTJ9xwH74b5utR78tSPpENPhLiwnaTb+Q OwViyKy+DfnZvOxGg2w0ng7RHJGCEsgyKI5TX5PumapImAxqhKZ6dDdeVQdHPCHk nUpKptAx+76gy3cQMNds =dd/C -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
