README.md

No joke: Thunderbird has been getting super bloated lately. Searches take forever. So I've been easing my way into Notmuch and mutt which is actually great. I still need to work out an address book, but this works well for me.

To Do

  • DONE: Get my password out of cleartext (using pass now)
  • Respect non ASCII characters
  • DONE: for a while I was running notmuch new after offlineimap but I added postsynchook = notmuch new to my offlineimap config instead.

HTML Attachments

To reliably open HTML in a browser, you need to add a line to mailcap:

text/html; firefox %s;copiousoutput

And you need to set mailcap_path = ~/.mailcap in neomuttrc

While Loop

while true; do time offlineimap && date +"%T"; sleep 20m; done
