It's hierarchical (the underlying allocator is talloc). So threads are<br>
owned by the corresponding query, and messages are owned by threads.<br>
<br>
Assuming replies refers to notmuch_message_get_replies, then those are<br>
owned by some thread as well.<br>
<br>
Threads are somewhat lazily constructed, so there's a time where a<br>
message is owned by a query before it is "stolen" by a thread.<br>
<br>
This is all Carl's design, so hopefully he'll correct me if I said<br>
anything outrageously wrong.<br>
