public-inbox help for https://lore.proxmox.com/all/
overview
--------
public-inbox uses Message-ID identifiers in URLs.
One may look up messages by substituting Message-IDs
(without the leading '<' or trailing '>') into the URL.
Forward slash ('/') characters in the Message-IDs
need to be escaped as "%2F" (without quotes).
Thus, it is possible to retrieve any message by its
Message-ID by going to:
https://lore.proxmox.com/all/<Message-ID>/
(without the '<' or '>')
Message-IDs are described at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message-ID
search
------
This public-inbox has search functionality provided by Xapian.
It supports typical AND, OR, NOT, '+', '-' queries present
in other search engines.
We also support search prefixes to limit the scope of the
search to certain fields.
Prefixes supported in this installation include:
s: match within Subject e.g. s:"a quick brown fox"
d: match date-time range, git "approxidate" formats supported
Open-ended ranges such as `d:last.week..' and
`d:..2.days.ago' are supported
b: match within message body, including text attachments
nq: match non-quoted text within message body
q: match quoted text within message body
n: match filename of attachment(s)
t: match within the To header
c: match within the Cc header
f: match within the From header
a: match within the To, Cc, and From headers
tc: match within the To and Cc headers
l: match contents of the List-Id header
bs: match within the Subject and body
dfn: match filename from diff
dfa: match diff removed (-) lines
dfb: match diff added (+) lines
dfhh: match diff hunk header context (usually a function name)
dfctx: match diff context lines
dfpre: match pre-image git blob ID
dfpost: match post-image git blob ID
dfblob: match either pre or post-image git blob ID
patchid: match `git patch-id --stable' output
rt: match received time, like `d:' if sender's clock was correct
Most prefixes are probabilistic, meaning they support stemming
and wildcards ('*'). Ranges (such as 'd:') and boolean prefixes
do not support stemming or wildcards.
The upstream Xapian query parser documentation fully explains
the query syntax:

message threading
-----------------
Message threading is enabled for this public-inbox,
additional endpoints for message threads are available:
* https://lore.proxmox.com/all/<Message-ID>/T/#u
Loads the thread belonging to the given <Message-ID>
in flat chronological order. The "#u" anchor
focuses the browser on the given <Message-ID>.
* https://lore.proxmox.com/all/<Message-ID>/t/#u
Loads the thread belonging to the given <Message-ID>
in threaded order with nesting. For deep threads,
this requires a wide display or horizontal scrolling.
Both of these HTML endpoints are suitable for offline reading
using the thread overview at the bottom of each page.
The gzipped mbox for a thread is available for downloading and
importing into your favorite mail client:
* https://lore.proxmox.com/all/<Message-ID>/t.mbox.gz
We use the mboxrd variant of the mbox format described at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mbox
Users of feed readers may follow a particular thread using:
* https://lore.proxmox.com/all/<Message-ID>/t.atom
Which loads the thread in Atom Syndication Standard
described at Wikipedia and RFC4287:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom_(standard)
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4287
