NAME

       notmuch-hooks - hooks for notmuch

SYNOPSIS

       $DATABASEDIR/.notmuch/hooks/*

DESCRIPTION

       Hooks  are  scripts  (or arbitrary executables or symlinks to such) that notmuch invokes before and after
       certain actions. These scripts reside in the .notmuch/hooks directory within the database  directory  and
       must have executable permissions.

       The currently available hooks are described below.

       pre-new
              This  hook  is  invoked  by  the  new  command  before scanning or importing new messages into the
              database. If this hook exits with a non-zero status, notmuch will abort further processing of  the
              new command.

              Typically this hook is used for fetching or delivering new mail to be imported into the database.

       post-new
              This  hook  is  invoked by the new command after new messages have been imported into the database
              and initial tags have been applied. The hook will not be run if there have been any errors  during
              the scan or import.

              Typically this hook is used to perform additional query-based tagging on the imported messages.

       post-insert
              This  hook  is  invoked  by  the insert command after the message has been delivered, added to the
              database, and initial tags have been applied. The hook will not be run  if  there  have  been  any
              errors  during the message delivery; what is regarded as successful delivery depends on the --keep
              option.

              Typically this hook is used to perform additional query-based tagging on the delivered messages.
