+This project uses notmuch, an answer to Sup.
+
+Notmuch is now configured in a file in the home directory named .notmuch-config.
+You can either edit that file directly or run "notmuch setup", though for
+stamail I would just copy the example file and edit that to your specs. To
+choose an alternate configuration location, set ${NOTMUCH_CONFIG}.
+
+The next step is to run "notmuch new" which will create a database that indexes
+all of your mailing-list. Depending on the amount of mail you have the initial indexing
+process can take a long time, so expect that. Also, the resulting database will
+require roughly the same amount of storage space as your current collection of
+email. So please ensure you have sufficient storage space available now.
