Either that or we just emit them all?
If we start with the obvious: notmuch show --output-headers=date,from,subject,to,cc,reply-to ... with the default being the current set. Emitting everything would be easier but seems wasteful. I just looked at a random message: in RFC822 syntax the header is 4073 bytes, and the body is 1116 bytes. Keeping only the fields that notmuch emits reduces the header to 295 bytes. Reply-To is 92 bytes, but not every message has that. Peter
