I have a bunch of saved searches, which I configure like this: (push '(:name "Personal Unscreened" :query "tag:inbox AND tag:unread AND (NOT query:screened-addresses)" :key "u" :search-type 'tree) notmuch-saved-searches) But when I run the search, it always the results in search view (notmuch-search-mode).

I think it's just a problem with too much quoting (try tree without ', since you already quoted the outside expression).

Thank you, David!  This fixed it:

(push '(:name "Personal Unscreened" :query "tag:inbox AND tag:unread AND (NOT query:screened-addresses) :key "u" :search-type tree) notmuch-saved-searches) I had actually tried 'tree and "tree" but not just the unquoted: tree

Even for people that prefer not to use customize, inspecting the expression that M-x customize-variable generates can help debug these kind of problems (that's what I did to see what was wrong with your example).


Thank you, that's good advice. I think it's probably time for me to spend some time understanding elisp quoting. I'm always a little confused by it.


Michael
