Re: notmuch search does not work with search term 'id:'

[Jörg Volbers]

Quoting the argument does not change anyting -- which makes sense, since searching for the id does work well when using "notmuch show --format=raw". So it's not a quoting issue.

This is the ID which I am using for testing:

E5-a1wt6bgr-elaine/2/42589-dc960...@nlsender05.ui-portal.com

BTW, the error also shows up if I just omit the option "format=raw" in notmuch show.

Hello, I have problems searching for a message by its id. If I call notmuch-show, everything works fine; actually this is used by the emacs frontend: 'notmuch show --format=raw id:<.....>' If I try to search for this mail with notmuch-search, I get no result: notmuch search -- id:<....> Any ideas?

put search terms inside single quotes. i.e. notmuch search -- 'id:<....>' Tomi
