Subject: Feature request: Search header Reply-to when using search prefix from
Date: Wed, 26 May 2021 13:24:01 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87k0nl8nvi.fsf@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
tl;dr;
This is a request for the search prefix 'from:' to look at both headers 'From:'
and 'Reply-to:'.
Detailed explanation:
Unfortunately DMARC broke the usage of the From: header in mailing lists.
When we use the search prefix 'from:' we don't get the emails we expect anymore
because mailing lists that respect DMARC have to replace them [1].
One of the solutions adopted by mailing lists is to set the Reply-To: header
with the original address. That is forcing notmuch users to index that header,
but whenever we search emails from a person, we have to search for:
from:person@example.com OR ReplyTo:person@example.com
This feature request is similar to what is done for search prefix 'to:' which
searches on headers 'To', 'Cc' and 'Bcc'.

Thank you!
