[PATCH v5.1 2/4] reply: Add a JSON reply format.

Adam Wolfe Gordon awg+notmuch at xvx.ca
Tue Feb 14 21:42:15 PST 2012


This new JSON format for replies includes headers generated for a
reply message as well as the headers of the original message.  Using
this data, a client can intelligently create a reply. For example, the
emacs client will be able to create replies with quoted HTML parts by
parsing the HTML parts.

Reply now enforces that only one message is returned, as the semantics
of replying to multiple messages are not well-defined.
---

Adjusted the header display to be consistent with the other JSON formats.
