Specify a recipient (To).
Specify a carbon-copy (Cc) recipient.

Go to the Notmuch hello screen instead of the message composition window if no message composition parameters are given.
Even if a window system is available, use the current terminal.
Use emacsclient(1), rather than emacs(1). For emacsclient(1) to work, you need an already running Emacs with a server, or use --auto-daemon.
Automatically start Emacs in daemon mode, if the Emacs server is not running. Applicable with --client. Implies --create-frame.
Create a new frame instead of trying to use the current Emacs frame. Applicable with --client. This will be required when Emacs is running (or automatically started with --auto-daemon) in daemon mode.
Output the resulting elisp to stdout instead of evaluating it.

The supported positional parameters and short options are a compatible subset of the mutt(1) MUA command-line options. The options and positional parameters modifying the message can't be combined with the mailto: URL.

Options may be specified multiple times.

Name of emacs command to invoke. Defaults to "emacs".
