Hi,

It seems notmuch-mutt --prompt search folder:"foo/bar" not working
like date: , tag: etc.

I tried
notmuch search folder:"foo/bar" which works.

Can you duplicate the problem with the version of notmuch in stable
(0.39-*)? If so, please try to find a self contained reproducer, as it
seemed ok here (testing, but same version of notmuch).

If nothing else, please explain what "not working" means.

Hi,

So I tried on unstable and it work as intended. I am using old-stable
where it not.

I guess you can try the version in oldstable backports. This is one
major version behind.

I wouldn't object if someone else wants to update the oldstable
backport, but it is not completely straightforward thanks to t64 related
changes in trixie that would have to be rolled back.

As a gross hack, you could just copy the notmuch-mutt script from 0.39
into your path.

Hi,

Moved to 0.38.1-1~bpo12+1 oldstable-backports.

Thank you.
