Welcome to mu!

Welcome to mu & mu4e!

|

Given the enormous amounts of e-mail many people gather and the importance of
|
||||
e-mail message in our work-flows, it's essential to quickly deal with all that
|
||||
mail - in particular, to instantly find that one important e-mail you need right
|
||||
now.
|
||||
|
||||
[mu] is a tool for dealing with e-mail messages stored in the
|
||||
Maildir-format. =mu='s purpose in life is to help you to quickly find the
|
||||
messages you need; in addition, it allows you to view messages, extract
|
||||
attachments, create new maildirs, and so on. See the [mu cheatsheet] for some
|
||||
examples. =mu= is fully documented.
|
||||
|
||||
After indexing your messages into a [Xapian]-database, you can search them using
|
||||
a custom query language. You can use various message fields or words in the
|
||||
body text to find the right messages.
|
||||
|
||||
Built on top of =mu= are some extensions (included in this package):

Given the enormous amounts of e-mail many people gather and the importance of e-mail message in our
|
||||
work-flows, it's essential to quickly deal with all that mail - in particular, to instantly find
|
||||
that one important e-mail you need right now, and quickly file away message for later use.

|

and later)
|

`mu` is a tool for dealing with e-mail messages stored in the Maildir-format. `mu`'s purpose in life
|
||||
is to help you to quickly find the messages you need; in addition, it allows you to view messages,
|
||||
extract attachments, create new maildirs, and so on. See the [mu cheatsheet] for some examples. =mu=
|
||||
is fully documented.
|
||||
|
||||
=mu= is written in C and a bit of C++ (to interface with Xapian), with =mu4e=
|
||||
written in [Emacs-Lisp] and =mu-guile= in a mix of C and Scheme.
|
||||
|
||||
Note, =mu= is available in Debian/Ubuntu under the name =maildir-utils=;
|
||||
apparently because they don't like short names. It's also possible to confuse
|
||||
that name with the [GNU Mailutils] project (which is totally unrelated) - but
|
||||
now you have been warned.
