Yeah, the combination of offline access on multiple computers sounds tricky.
Offline access on a single computer is basically a core usecase notmuch was designed for.
Online access from multiple computers is trivial by writing a shell script that pretends to be notmuch but instead runs the real notmuch command on a remote machine through SSH. (Same trick applies to sending email too.) Works surprisingly well.
Have you found anything that does offline access across multiple computers well?
- cycomanic 4y agoAs I wrote in my post I use mbsync on a always on machine and muchsync to synchronize, and it works well for quite a while, but every couple of months I encounter an issue and end up spending several hours troubleshooting. I really wish there was something better, because I really like the speed and the keyboard centric navigation of notmuch clients.
