If you run notmuch new, it should add a URI-based filename to each message, but I don't think it should remove old filenames, so I would expect it to be fine. But I didn't expect anyone to try it on their actual mail database.

It doesn'= ;t change any of the existing filenames or do anything like a database &quo= t;upgrade". If you run notmuch new, it should add a URI-based filename= to each message, but I don't think it should remove old filenames, so = I would expect it to be fine.
