I'm experimenting with e-mail messages with multiple addresses in the From: line. i know, it's dirty, but e-mail is a dirty world.
I noticed that notmuch-emacs renders such messages differently depending on the order of the recipients, and whether or not they are an addr-spec or a mail-addr (see https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322#section-3.4). All three messags below are "From:" both alice and bob, and alice is always listed first. the difference in how notmuch-emacs displays them is in how the sending address shows up. In notmuch-search, it only shows the first address: ----------------------- 1 mins. ago [1/1] al...@fifthhorseman.net a final test () 5 mins. ago [1/1] al...@fifthhorseman.net a third message () 23 mins. ago [1/1] Alice a second test from Alice and Bob () 24 mins. ago [1/1] Alice a test from alice and bob () End of search results. ----------------------- But the first message in notmuch-show doesn't show Bob at all: ----------------------- Alice <al...@fifthhorseman.net> (8 mins. ago) () Subject: a test from alice and bob To: Daniel Kahn Gillmor <d...@fifthhorseman.net> Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2017 01:37:56 -0400 here we go -----------------------
--- Begin Message ---here we go
--- End Message ---
While the rest of them do: ----------------------- Alice <al...@fifthhorseman.net>, Bob <b...@fifthhorseman.net> (0 mins. ago) () Subject: a second test from Alice and Bob To: Daniel Kahn Gillmor <d...@fifthhorseman.net> Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2017 01:38:43 -0400 how about now? -----------------------
--- Begin Message ---how about now?
--- End Message ---
----------------------- al...@fifthhorseman.net, Bob <b...@fifthhorseman.net> (0 mins. ago) () Subject: a third message To: Daniel Kahn Gillmor <d...@fifthhorseman.net> Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2017 01:56:46 -0400 another try -----------------------
--- Begin Message ---another try
--- End Message ---
----------------------- al...@fifthhorseman.net, b...@fifthhorseman.net (0 mins. ago) () Subject: a final test To: Daniel Kahn Gillmor <d...@fifthhorseman.net> Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2017 02:00:36 -0400 and where does this leave us? -----------------------
--- Begin Message ---and where does this leave us?
--- End Message ---
Maybe someone with better emacs-fu could figure out why the first of the four is different? --dkg
