Francesc Elies Henar fea2b1e037 add notmuch layer 
This patch adds a notmuch[1] layer to Spacemacs!

notmuch is a mail indexing system written in C. It provides an emacs
interface, and this patch adds Spacemacs support for this interface.

Thanks to @FrancescElies for starting this work, and working with me to
get it finished. We have been using the layer for awhile now and are
happy with the initial release!

Closes #2163

Description

Notmuch offers a fast, global-search and tag-based email system to use within your text editor or in a terminal.

This layer integrates notmuch emacs package into spacemacs.

Features:

  • Email searching
  • Email tagging

Install

In order to use this layer you must install notmuch separately.

To install not much follow the instructions in installation instructions.

Then add this layer to your ~/.spacemacs. You will need to add notmuch to the existing dotspacemacs-configuration-layers list in this file.

Sending and Receiving emails

For this you will need an external program.

Receiving emails

To be able to receive email you will need to configure an external program to do it. See the receive mail section.

After you configured your email fetcher program, maybe you would like to synchronize the email each time you call notmuch, in order to do that you could customize the variable notmuch-hello-mode-hook to call a lisp function that calls your email syncing utility.

Sending emails with Thunderbird

You could use thunderbird http://pragmaticemacs.com/emacs/use-emacs-for-thunderbird-emails/

Sending emails with msmtp

Download and Install msmtp

Configure ~/.mailrc with the path where msmtp is found.

For example:

set sendmail="/usr/local/bin/msmtp"

Configure ~/.msmtprc example
