.SH NAME
mu extract\- display and save message parts (attachments)
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B mu extract [options] <file> [<parts-to-save>]
.SH DESCRIPTION
2010-09-01 22:35:03 +02:00
\fBmu extact\fR is the \fBmu\fR sub-command for extracting MIME-parts (e.g.,
2011-01-31 08:15:55 +01:00
attachments) from mail messages. It works on message files, and does not
require the message to be indexed.
2010-09-01 22:35:03 +02:00
2010-10-23 11:04:14 +02:00
For attachments, the file name specified in the mail message is used (if
any). If there is no name, or when saving other mime-parts, a name is used
2011-02-01 23:13:51 +01:00
derived from the message-id of the message. Without any options, \fBmu
extract\fR simply outputs the list of MIME-parts in the message.
