Notmuch is a system for indexing, searching, reading, and tagging large collections of email messages in maildir or mh format. It uses the Xapian library to provide fast, full-text search with a very convenient search syntax.

This package provides a legacy Python 3 interface to the notmuch functionality, directly interfacing with a shared notmuch library.

New projects are encouraged to use python3-notmuch2 instead.
