# Fzf searching notmuch email database

# Search with notmuch queries
# You can either invoke:
# `fzfmail` -> and then interactively create a notmuch query (not fuzzy searching)
# or:
# `fzfmail [notmuchquery]` -> pre-craft a query and then use fzf to filter it further, e.g.
# fzfmail tag:archived and subject:Important and not tag:flagged
#
# select as many mails as you wish (ctrl-a for all current results)
# preview mails with ?
#
# read with <enter>
# re-tag with <ctrl-t>
