NOTMUCH-EMACS-MUA(1)		     notmuch		    NOTMUCH-EMACS-MUA(1)

NAME
     notmuch-emacs-mua - send mail with notmuch and emacs

SYNOPSIS
     notmuch emacs-mua [options ...] [<to-address> ... | <mailto-url>]

DESCRIPTION
     Start  composing  an  email in the Notmuch Emacs UI with the specified sub-
     ject, recipients, and message body, or mailto: URL.

     Supported options for emacs-mua include

     -h, --help
	    Display help.

     -s, --subject=<subject>
	    Specify the subject of the message.

     --to=<to-address>
	    Specify a recipient (To).

     -c, --cc=<cc-address>
	    Specify a carbon-copy (Cc) recipient.

     -b, --bcc=<bcc-address>
	    Specify a blind-carbon-copy (Bcc) recipient.

     -i, --body=<file>
	    Specify a file to include into the body of the message.

     --hello
	    Go to the Notmuch hello screen instead of  the  message  composition
	    window if no message composition parameters are given.

     --no-window-system
	    Even if a window system is available, use the current terminal.

     --client
	    Use  emacsclient(1),  rather  than	emacs(1).  For emacsclient(1) to
	    work, you need an already  running	Emacs  with  a	server,  or  use
	    --auto-daemon.

     --auto-daemon
	    Automatically start Emacs in daemon mode, if the Emacs server is not
	    running. Applicable with --client. Implies --create-frame.

     --create-frame
	    Create a new frame instead of trying to use the current Emacs frame.
	    Applicable	with  --client. This will be required when Emacs is run-
	    ning (or automatically started with --auto-daemon) in daemon mode.

     --print
	    Output the resulting elisp to stdout instead of evaluating it.

     The supported positional parameters and short options are a compatible sub-
     set of the mutt(1) MUA command-line options. The options and positional pa-
     rameters modifying the message can't be combined with the mailto: URL.

     Options may be specified multiple times.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
     EMACS  Name of emacs command to invoke. Defaults to "emacs".

     EMACSCLIENT
	    Name of emacsclient command to invoke. Defaults to "emacsclient".
