Multiple gmail accounts?

[paralin]

Is there a good way of setting up multiple accounts in a single repository?

No, do not do that. Create a sub-directory and create your repositories below that (one dir for each). Notmuch doesn't care about directory layout as long as it is below the root mail directory.

It seems that once this is done, notmuch gets confused with all the tags (since it indexes both accounts) and it ends up being that sent emails from account A are also sent to the inbox folder of account A, and a lot of messages in the form of "xx is not in this repository, ignoring" pop up.
Any idea how this could be resolved?

Notmuch identifies emails with the mail ID. If you have the same email in two accounts this will result in tags propagating between the accounts. You do not have any other emails in the Gmail folders for the accounts? They should have one exclusive folder each. tor. 24. okt. 2019, 18:33 skrev Constantine Theocharis < notifications@github.com>:

I don't, that's the weird thing. My directory structure is as follows: ~/.local/share/mail/ is the notmuch root directory. ~/.local/share/mail/account.gmail1/ is the first gmail account and ~/.local/share/mail/account.gmail2/ is the second. They are both indexed by notmuch. But when for example I send an email from gmail1 to some other address (not gmail2), the email also appears in the inbox of gmail1. I don't know why this is. I presume that spending some time to debug this would get me to the root cause. However, I've decided to move to an IMAP-based solution due to this and other problems with tag-based email. Nevertheless, good work on this project, it is truly cool! Thanks for the reply.
