Thanks, I will definitly consider using notmuch inside emacs. I already
have my email fetched by offlineimap and I use mutt-notmuch inside mutt to
search email (with the code below).

I have some work to do (for example, I have some difficulty with
notmuch's spirit of doing everything with a search; for now I am unable
to display only my inbox inside notmuch-emacs...).
