Easy, it's pretty hacky, but works:

This is in my .offlinesyncrc in the [Account x] section:

#-----------------------------------------------------------
#currently not needed
#presynchook = notmuch new > /dev/null && /home/spaetz/src/notmuchsync/notmuchsync -q -s

postsynchook = notmuch new && callanothernotmuchscripthere && notmuch
search --output=threads tag:ignore | xargs notmuch tag +ignore -- not tag:ignore and 

#not needed anymore
#&& /home/spaetz/src/notmuchsync/notmuchsync -r -q
#-----------------------------------------------------------


I simply run offlineimap in a cron script, or via 'G' (ie M-x
notmuch-poll) or asynchron via another key binding with offlineimap.el
that I downloaded from somewhere.
