NAME

6       notmuch-address - output addresses from matching messages
7

SYNOPSIS

9       notmuch address [option ...] <search-term> ...
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Search  for  messages  matching the given search terms, and display the
13       addresses from them. Duplicate addresses are filtered out.
14
15       See notmuch-search-terms(7) for details of  the  supported  syntax  for
16       <search-terms>.
17
18       Supported options for address include
19
20       --format=(json|sexp|text|text0)
21              Presents  the  results  in  either  JSON, S-Expressions, newline
22              character separated plain-text (default), or null character sep‐
23              arated  plain-text  (compatible  with  xargs(1)  -0 option where
24              available).
25
26       --format-version=N
27              Use the specified structured output format version. This is  in‐
28              tended  for programs that invoke notmuch(1) internally. If omit‐
29              ted, the latest supported version will be used.
30
31       --output=(sender|recipients|count|address)
32              Controls which information appears in the  output.  This  option
33              can  be given multiple times to combine different outputs.  When
34              neither --output=sender nor --output=recipients is given, --out‐
35              put=sender is implied.
36
37              sender Output all addresses from the From header.
38
39                     Note:  Searching  for  sender  should be much faster than
40                     searching for recipients, because  sender  addresses  are
41                     cached  directly  in the database whereas other addresses
42                     need to be fetched from message files.
43
44              recipients
45                     Output all addresses from the To, Cc and Bcc headers.
46
47              count  Print the count of how many times was the address encoun‐
48                     tered during search.
49
50                     Note:  With this option, addresses are printed only after
51                     the whole search is finished. This may take long time.
52
53              address
54                     Output only the email addresses instead of the full mail‐
55                     boxes  with names and email addresses. This option has no
56                     effect on the JSON or S-Expression output formats.
57
58       --deduplicate=(no|mailbox|address)
59              Control the deduplication of results.
60
61              no     Output all occurrences of addresses in the matching  mes‐
62                     sages. This is not applicable with --output=count.
63
64              mailbox
65                     Deduplicate  addresses  based on the full, case sensitive
66                     name and email address, or mailbox. This  is  effectively
67                     the  same as piping the --deduplicate=no output to sort |
68                     uniq, except for the order of results. This  is  the  de‐
69                     fault.
70
71              address
72                     Deduplicate  addresses  based on the case insensitive ad‐
73                     dress part of the mailbox. Of all the variants (with dif‐
74                     ferent  name  or case), print the one occurring most fre‐
75                     quently among the matching messages. If --output=count is
76                     specified, include all variants in the count.
77
78       --sort=(newest-first|oldest-first)
79              This option can be used to present results in either chronologi‐
80              cal order (oldest-first) or reverse  chronological  order  (new‐
81              est-first).
82
83              By  default,  results will be displayed in reverse chronological
84              order, (that is, the newest results will be displayed first).
85
86              However, if either --output=count  or  --deduplicate=address  is
87              specified,  this  option is ignored and the order of the results
88              is unspecified.
89
90       --exclude=(true|false)
91              A message is called "excluded" if it matches at least one tag in
92              search.exclude_tags  that  does  not  appear  explicitly  in the
93              search terms. This option specifies  whether  to  omit  excluded
94              messages in the search process.
95
96              The  default value, true, prevents excluded messages from match‐
97              ing the search terms.
98
99              false allows excluded messages to match search terms and  appear
100              in displayed results.
