notmuch-addresses.sh -- email address substring matcher -- completion
helper version 1.4 is available.

This version uses 'notmuch search --sort=newest-first --output=files ...'
(instead of notmuch show ...) to retrieve message information from notmuch
... and now scans headers from mail files itself.

* This is now somewhat faster as the whole emails are not read.
* The sort order is better guaranteed.
* Current memory consumption of 'notmuch show --format=text' does not
  hit users.

Addresses file header format is same as in 1.3 so upgrading from that
version does not cause addresses file rebuild.

Note to upgraders: this version may not find as many addreses as older
ones -- those also scanned From:, To: and Cc: in message bodies. 
Current version seldom leaks to the body of the message...
So, don't get alarmed if --update --rebuild finds less addresses.


Enjoy!
Tomi
