Hello, org-mode!
The attached file implements links to mail collections and "searchs" to
the notmuch mail client. A "search" is a query to be performed by
notmuch; it is the equivalent to folders in other mail
clients. Similarly, mails are refered to by a query, so both a link can
refer to several mails.
I had read on this list
(http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg28411.html) that
there already was an implementation of links to notmuch, but it could
not be implemented because of paperwork problems. I have implemented
this because I got tired of waiting :)
I'm new to hacking org-mode, and the implementation might not be
perfect. I would be happy to receive comments. I already have one
question: why is it needed to url-encode the links in org mode? For
instance, I would like to be able to hand-write links like this:
[[notmuch-search:to:xxx and not from:yyyy]]
But it only works if I org-link-encode/org-link-decode the link (else,
the and not .. is completely skipped from the query). Similarly, if I do
(org-open-link-from-string
"notmuch:id:\"7f39qo4aut.fsf@aeuaue.free.fr\""))
The last " gets removed in the argument I receive in org-notmuch-open.
This is a pity because hand-writing url-encoded links is not
user-friendly.
PS: could you please Cc me because I am not subscribed to the list.

I should have mentioned that the reason why I wrote it is that I would
very much like to have it included in org-mode, and I'm OK to sign the
copyright papers if necessary.

Matthieu

Sigh. The FSF and my University still haven't been able to come to an
agreement on a disclaimer. So, by all means, use Mathieu's code if it
is less bureaucratically encumbered. It would be nice if the link format
was compatible; there are few brave souls using my patch.

Looks like a nice addition.
I'm not using notmuch myself and I would welcome feedback from notmuch
Org users. I would happily add it to org-mode/contrib/lisp if this is
proves useful to several people around.
Thanks!

I'm not using notmuch, but people reported it as useful -- I'm willing
to add org-notmuch.el to the contrib/lisp/ folder in org-mode.git.
Would that be okay for you?
Thanks!
PS: just add a "This file is not part of GNU Emacs" somewhere in the
comments.
