Matching on any header line

Matching on any header line

[Nico Schottelius]

Good morning,

I am using mutt-kz with notmuch as the backend.

I was wondering if it is possible to match on any header line?

I have the problem that often To/Cc do not reveal the real destination,
so I would like to match on X-Original-To: or Delivered-To:
header lines.

So I was wondering, if there is generic support to match on something
like "header:x-original-to:this@example.org"?

Cheers,

Nico

p.s.: Please CC on reply, I am not subscribed.

Such support does not currently exist in notmuch.

Too bad - if you are in general open for it, I will add it to my
"to hack" list.

I _think_ the concensus was that want to configure the set of headers
indexed, mainly based on worries about bloating the database.  At least,
certain long headers like Received would most likely need to be
blacklisted.
