nnir notmuch search on specific groups?

["Andreas Goesele" <goesele@hfph.mwn.de>]

Hi,

with quite some effort I was able to get nnir to work together with the
notmuch search engine. But then, differently from what I expected from
the documentation in the manual, I discovered that obviously with the
notmuch engine the searches are not restricted to the groups selected.

Looking at the code I found this error message, commented out:

;; (when group
;;   (error "The notmuch backend cannot search specific groups")

I guess this indeed means what it says, but as it is commented out and
not mentioned in the manual, I would like to get some confirmation:

Is it possible or not to search specific groups with the notmuch
backend?

Thanks a lot

Andreas
