> +  Tags can be automatically excluded from search results by adding them
> +  to the new 'search.exclude_tags' option in the Notmuch config file.
> +
> +  This behaviour can be overridden by explicitly including an excluded
> +  tag in your query, for example:
> +
> +    notmuch search $your_query and tag:$excluded_tag
> +
> +  Existing users will probably want to run "notmuch setup" again to add
> +  the new well-commented [search] section to the configuration file.
> +
> +  For new configurations, accepting the default setting will cause the
> +  tags "deleted" and "spam" to be excluded, equivalent to running:
> +
> +    notmuch config set search.exclude_tags deleted spam
