Hi,

I have tried the command "notmuch reindex id:the-msg-id". Yes, it does
fix the database problem. However, as far as I understood your
reindex-patches, the command does not touch 'XDIRECTORY' records. So
the record about folder "new/" will remain in the database. But it is
very minor thing, because it will not affect the work of notmuch at all.

So my patch-set fixes the bug, but does not fix the database. And 'reindex'
does fix the consequences of the bug. Right in time, because I was going
to fix my broken records manually :).

Buy the way, I'm not sure I understood the purpose of the 'reindex'. Is
it for situations like this? For fixing broken database? Or something more?
