<p>After building the database, it's easy to search for messages. For example:
<ul>
<li>
<i>get all mails about birds <b>and</b> bees</i> (and similar words)
<pre>
$ mu find bird bee
</pre>
if you want to find message with either one of those, you can do:
<pre>
$ mu find 'bird OR bee'
</pre>
<i>get all mails about birds <b>and</b> bees</i> (and similar words)<pre>
$ mu find bird bee</pre>
if you want to find message with either one of those, you can do:<pre>
$ mu find 'bird OR bee'</pre>
</li>
<li>
<i>get all Smith's mails with 'capybara' in the subject line</i>
<pre>
$ mu find from:smith subject:capybara
</pre>
<i>get all Smith's mails with 'capybara' in the subject line</i><pre>
$ mu find from:smith subject:capybara</pre>
</li>
<li>
<i>get the mails in the archive folder where Mary was Cc'd</i>
<pre>
$ mu find maildir:/archive cc:mary
</pre>
<i>get the mails in the archive folder where Mary was Cc'd</i><pre>
$ mu find maildir:/archive cc:mary</pre>
</li>
</ul>
Starting with version 0.9, you can search for date ranges, message flags and
message priority as well:
<ul>
<li>
<i>get mails with attachments from the last two weeks:</i><pre>
$ mu find flag:attach date:2w..now</pre>
</li>
<li>
<i>get all important mails in March and April 2010:</i><pre>
$ mu find prio:high date:2010-03..2010-04</pre>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Searches are case-insensitive as well as 'accent insensitive' (version 0.9
and up); so <i>angStroM</i> will match <i>Ångström</i>.
<p>The way to express the searches may be a bit cryptic at first, but easy to
learn (in the author's biased opinion); the mu manpages discuss syntax and
usage, and contain examples.

simple examples to get you going.
<p>NOTE: while searching from the command-line is sometimes useful, mu is most
easily used when integrated with an e-mail program. The documentation includes

Starting with version 0.9, there is now a simple UI called <tt>mug</tt>. It
started as a little experiment, but it seems to be useful enough to
include. Usage should be straigthforward.
<p>The longer-term goal is to have a bit more complete graphical user-interface;
