New release of lieer! https://github.com/gauteh/lieer (v1.5) with the new gmail oauth2 flow.

"Fast email-fetching and sending and two-way tag synchronization between notmuch and GMail"

#gmail #notmuch #python #api

@tin it still need a lot of customization and fixes. I will switch to the #notmuch backend (I was with mbsync). I will probably try to contribute to the code base with small patches.

The funny things about really good software projects, that sometimes they are so good and complete already that there is no fuss around them, they just work and do the job done.

Mailing lists are quite, new commits are rare. Sometimes it can even feels that they are unmaintained or dead, but in fact they are more than alive.

What other cool "almost complete" projects do you know?

I have a possibly tricky #licensing question for all of you people who are not my #lawyer. I have collected a corpus of #email [1] to help tune #notmuch

There are about 200k messages collected from two public mailing lists and the Enron corpus. In a fit of public spirit I thought I should upload it as a dataset to https://zenodo.org. But I have no idea what license, if any to put on the data set. Anyone with similar experience? Somehow the Enron corpus ended up CC licensed, but I don't know if any lawyers were harmed in the making of that decision.

I do miss some things from Gnus, but the more I use #notmuch in #emacs the more I like it. I didn't want to go to my terminal or vterm every time I want to get my mail, so I added a section to the hello screen with a button to call notmuch for me. Easy!

#notmuch is giving me a headache. #coredumps ? Really ? On #Friday ? So looks like the only way out of it is to dump everything into .txt, notmuch-new then notmuch-restore it again. Will see what happens. Is there another fast and reliable indexer for emails which works with #neomutt / #mutt ?

Dear person mirroring the #notmuch repo every 4 minutes;

I think you might be a little optimistic about the pace of development.

A while ago I had to use a Windows machine at work, and of course the first thing I did was install #Emacs on it. Most things worked surprisingly well, but I couldn't get #Mu4e to work. I also tried #NotMuch and #Mew, but I also failed to either install them or compile them.

At the end I tried #Gnus, and everything worked out of the box. I didn't even need to install any GNU utility.

Gnus is not the prettiest, and its terminology and configuration is confusing. But it is incredibly versatile.

It has worked very nicely as an Email email client, specially to manage mailing lists. But now I also use it for things like Reddit and Hackernews.

What are your experiences with Emacs mail clients under Windows? Is anyone using something other than Gnus?

I have achieved offline email sync nirvana:

- sub-100 ms no-op sync
- 1.7kb round trip traffic

#jmap #notmuch

@Joel I'm a "do everything in #emacs" guy, so my mail is via #Gnus, #Getmail, #Notmuch, #BBDB, and integration with #orgmode todo items. So, it took me a while to get my email setup configured, but now it fits like a glove. As I write this on Mastodon, I am one key chord away from creating (C-x m) or checking my email (f9) or searching my email (s-m) or searching my contacts (C-c b b).

I wish #kmail had #notmuch integration. That'd be awesome.

@postmodern only half on-topic since no Gmail and no oauth, but still: notmuch inside Emacs, homegrown sync to local via ssh. #email #emacs #notmuch

@jindam_vani I use #gnus with #davmail to access emails from an exchange server and #notmuch for searching. Emails are retrieved with POP and stored in nnml groups. I also use nntp for newsgroups.

My todo search in notmuch went down from 40+ to 27 emails, but my inbox grew to 52 🙃

The moment when the bottleneck is your capabilities not your tools.

However, the big part of this inbox is related to patches for the tools we use, so it's kinda unclear what the real bottleneck is 😄

@jao @wentasah IIRC #notmuch or an external library has an answer to #gnus scoring system?

@wentasah you are welcome, it annoyed me too! :) that's another thing i like about #notmuch coming from #gnus: i can understand its implementation and contribute much better, or extend it in my configuration more easily (as with the currently pending tree outline mode). #gnus is much more arcane, although i like its user-side a lot, and several of the things i have for #notmuch are inspired by #gnus, like the feature you mention.

I use #notmuch for email. It annoyed me that every reply to github conversation is prefilled with several xxx@noreply.github.com recipient addresses, which I had to manually delete. Fortunately, @jao implemented support for message-dont-reply-to-names earlier this year, which removes the annoyance. Thanks!
