Summary

Analyze keywords

This is a simple email client on top of the notmuch command-line email indexing tool.

Before using this extension make sure you are familiar with the following terms:

notmuch: https://notmuchmail.org/
offlineimap (or another command-line email fetcher): http://www.offlineimap.org/
Maildir folder structure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maildir

The extension has three sections:

"List" view: this view is capable of displaying entries in a search query
"Tree" view: this view is meant to list all the folders inside the root Maildir
"Search" view: this view is meant to offer custom search

The extension by itself is just a GUI for notmuch. You can add custom commands to improve the UI usability

Also, you can define a single periodic job which is used to fetch emails and display a toolbar badge text.

User reviews

too confusing at first time. it wants you to do very much steps. i removed and didn't use. idk if we are the developer or "user"

not running in Chrome on CloudReady, just offering Windows install.bat script. Completely useless, even it the Chrome Web Store displays: "Compatible with your device"
