Hi, Dal.  There are already configuration variables to color all the
individual fields in the search result.  See the following face
configuration variables:

notmuch-search-date
notmuch-search-count
notmuch-search-subject
notmuch-search-matching-authors
notmuch-search-non-matching-authors

The best way to configure this stuff is with the emacs configuration
interface: M-x customize-group notmuch-search
