[Also replying back to the mutt-user list] Sure, try both and choose the one that fits your use case. You can find my script here [1]. It requires the python bindings for libnotmuch. Since I use Arch Linux, these bindings are shipped with the 'notmuch' package. But you should check your distribution. Cheers Till [1] https://github.com/l3nkz/mutt-tools/blob/master/mutt_addresses
