Re: notmuch users: how do you filter debbugs?

[Patricia J. Hawkins]

I'm just getting started setting up to use notmuch (your message
attracted my attention to it!) but looks like the afew script is
designed to do this, as a companion processer ("initial tagging") for
notmuch.

https://github.com/teythoon/afew

That and other initial tagging strategies are described here: 
https://notmuchmail.org/initial_tagging/

Google round to see how others have used it in their setup.
