NAME
       notmuch-new - incorporate new mail into the notmuch database

SYNOPSIS
       notmuch new [options]

DESCRIPTION
       Find and import any new messages to the database.

       The  new  command scans all sub-directories of the database, performing full-text indexing
       on new messages that are found. Each new message will automatically be  tagged  with  both
       the inbox and unread tags.

       You  should  run  notmuch new once after first running notmuch setup to create the initial
       database. The first run may take a long time if you have  a  significant  amount  of  mail
       (several  hundred  thousand  messages  or  more). Subsequently, you should run notmuch new
       whenever new mail is delivered and you wish to incorporate it into  the  database.   These
       subsequent runs will be much quicker than the initial run.

       Invoking  notmuch  with  no  command argument will run new if notmuch setup has previously
       been completed, but notmuch new has not previously been run.

       notmuch new updates tags  according  to  maildir  flag  changes  if  the  maildir.synchro‐
       nize_flags configuration option is enabled. See notmuch-config(1) for details.

       The new command supports hooks. See notmuch-hooks(5) for more details on hooks.

       Supported options for new include

          --no-hooks
                 Prevents hooks from being run.

          --quiet
                 Do not print progress or results.
