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.

~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 [[www/cheatsheet.md][mu
|
||||
cheatsheet]] for some examples. =mu= is fully documented.

After indexing your messages into a [[http://www.xapian.org][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):
|
||||
|
||||
- mu4e: a full-featured e-mail client that runs inside emacs
|
||||
|
||||
- mu-guile: bindings for the Guile/Scheme programming language (version 2.2 and later)

||||
- mu-guile: bindings for the Guile/Scheme programming language (version 3.0 and
|
||||
later)
|
||||
|
||||
~mu~ is written in C and C++; ~mu4e~ is written in elisp, and ~mu-guile~ in
|
||||
a mix of C and Scheme.

Note, ~mu~ is available in Linux distributions (e.g. Debian/Ubuntu and
|
||||
Fedora) under the name ~maildir-utils~; apparently because they don't
|
||||
like short names. All of the code is distributed under the terms
