Hi,

I also see it a little bit strange to have reply in notmuch, but I don't
care if it works (which is unfortunately not the case, see my next
mail). You needn't use it if your MUA provides a different way of
replying.

There is indeed one interesting functionality in notmuch reply -
replying to multiple messages based on a search term. Currently it is a
little bit rough, but I can imagine I could use it some day.

Bye
Michal
