-Questions & answers about mu.
-
-** Indexing
-
-   *Q*: I have some maildirs with spam and junk e-mail that I /don't/ want to
-   include in the indexing process. How can I tell =mu= to ignore those?
-     
-   *A*: Put a file called =.noindex= in the directory (maildir) you'd like
-   to ignore, and mu will not index that directory, nor any of its
-   sub-maildirs.
-
-   *Q*: =mu index= complains about some messages being too big; what can I do
-   about that?
-
-   *A*: since =0.9.2=, there is =--max-msg-size= where you can set the maximum
-   size (in bytes) of messages that =mu= should consider. In older versions,
-   you'd need to update =MU_MAILDIR_WALK_MAX_FILE_SIZE= in =mu-maildir.c= and
-   recompile.
-    
-** Searching
-   
-   *Q*: Do you have some examples of queries?
- 
-   *A*: sure, see the =mu-easy= man page (=man mu-easy=), or see below.
-
-   *Q*: I have some folders with spaces in their names; how can I match those?
-   
-   *A*: You'll have to quote the folder name; and from the command line that
-   means you'll have to escape those quotes; for example:
-
-#+begin_example
-         $ mu find maildir:"\"Sent Items\""
-#+end_example
-
-   Note that matching maildirs with 'special' characters like dots, '@' was
-   problematic in some older =mu=-versions, but should work well with the
-   =0.9.2= and beyond.
-   
-   *Q*: I'd like to get the result of a query as a list of the message files. Is
-   that possible?
-    
-   *A*: Yes; using the =l= (small letter L) in the format, you can do something
-   like:
-#+begin_example
-         $ mu find --fields=l athens
-#+end_example
-
-   to get the file names (paths) of all messages about Athens. Of course, you
-   can use that for further processing. For example, to get list of e-mail files
-   sorted by their length in lines:
-
-#+begin_example
-        $ mu find --fields=l athens | xargs wc -l | sort -n 
- #+end_example
-
-** Showing the results
-
-   *Q*: Can I get the output in some other format that lines of plain text? Say,
-   in XML?
-   
-   *A*: Starting with version 0.9.2, there is (experimental) support for output
-    in XML, JSON and s-expressions. Use =--format=xml=-argument (or
-    =--format=sexp=, =--format=json= ) to =mu find= for this. Note that this is
-    still experimental, and the exact formats have not been fixed yet. 
-   
-   *Q*: Can I integrate =mu find= with my e-mail client? 
-
-   *A*: Yes, at least for some mail clients like =mutt= and =Wanderlust= (for
-   emacs) you can do that. For this, =mu= uses a special trick where the
-   results of a search are put in a special temporary maildir with symbolic
-   links to the found messages, and the visiting this temporary maildir with
-   the mail client. The =mu-find= man page has some examples on how to
-   integrate this with mail clients.
-   
-   *Q*: Is there some GUI for =mu=?
-
-   *A*: A GUI is being developed, but it will take some time to be
-    ready. However, as of version 0.9.1, in the =toys/=-directory of the =mu=
-    source package you'll find =mug= and =mug2=, which show-case parts of the
-    future GUI. =mug2= is the more feature-rich one, and requires a fairly
-    recent GTK+/Glib and Webkit, while =mug= only requires GTK+. If you have the
-    required packages, =mug=/=mug2= will automatically be built; however, =make
-    install= will *not* install them. You'll need to run them from their
-    directory. [[http://www.djcbsoftware.nl/code/mu/mug-full.png][Screenshot]].

-<h2><a name="welcome">welcome to mu</a></h2>
-
-<p>For many people, e-mail is the 'flow' in their work-flow. One spends
-a <em>lot</em> of time searching for old e-mails, digging up some important
-piece of information. With people having tens of thousands of e-mails (or
-more), this is becoming harder and harder. How to find that one message in the
-evergrowing information haystack?
-
-<p>Enter <strong>mu</strong>. 'mu' is a set of command-line tools for
-Linux/Unix that enable you to quickly find the e-mails you are looking for.
-The main requirement is that you store your e-mails <strong>in
-Maildirs</strong>. If you have no idea what 'Maildirs' are, you are probably
-not using them.
-
-<h3>how does it work?</h3>
-
-<p>First, you need to <i>index</i> your messages. Indexing means filling a
-database with information about your e-mails; this may take a couple of
-minutes the first time you do it, but after that it's a lot
-faster. <tt>mu</tt> indexes your mail with the <tt>index</tt> command:
-<pre>
-  $ mu index
-</pre>
-It tries to pick reasonable defaults, but you can specify your own options as
-well. You could run <tt>mu index</tt> periodically to keep your database
-up-to-date. Or you could trigger it when new mails have arrived.
-
-<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> somewhere in the message
-    or headers: <pre>
-    $ mu find birds bees</pre>
-  if you want to find message with either one of those, you can do:<pre>
-    $ mu find 'birds OR bees'</pre>
-  </li>
-  <li>
-    <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>
-  </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>�ngstr�m</i>. Often-used queries
-  can be stored in bookmarks file.
-
-<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. There is also the <tt>mu-easy</tt> man-page which contains a lot of
-simple examples to get you going.
-
-<p>NOTE: while searching from the command-line is useful, mu can also easily
-be integrated with some e-mail clients. The documentation includes examples
-for integration with <em>mutt</em> and <em>Wanderlust</em>.
-
-<p><strong>mu</strong> is <em>Free Software</em> (GPLv3), runs on
-Unix/Linux-based systems, and uses the <a href="http://www.xapian.org"
->Xapian</a> text indexing engine. <strong>Important</strong>: for mu to work,
-your mails must be stored in a set of <a
-href="http://www.qmail.org/qmail-manual-html/man5/maildir.html" >maildirs</a>
-
-<h2><a name="mug" >mug</a><a href="mug-full.png"><img src="mug-thumb.png"
-align="right" border="0"></a></h2> Starting with version 0.9.2, there is
-now <b>two</b> toy UIs for <tt>mu</tt>, called <tt>mug</tt>
-and <tt>mug2</tt>. The latter has more features, but also adds some
-dependencies if you want it - both <tt>mug</tt>/<tt>mug2</tt> are
-optional. The longer-term goal is to have a bit more complete graphical
-user-interface. Currently, the UIs are not installed, you need to run them
-from their build directory. If you have defined bookmarks, the are shown in
-the toolbar on the left side of the window, as can be seen in the screenshot.

-<h2><a name="news" >news</a></h2>
-<ul>
-  <li>[2011-02-02] <strong>mu version 0.9.2</strong> released, with a few new
-  features, such as size-based matching (e.g,. <tt>size:2k..2m</tt> to match
-  message between 2kB and 2MB), (experimental) output in XML/JSON/s-expression
-  format, updated toy-UI ('mug' and 'mug2'), support for Solaris and
-  Gentoo. For a complete list of the user-visible changes and some of the
-  changes in command-line parameters, see
-  <a href="http://gitorious.org/mu/mu-ng/blobs/master/NEWS">NEWS</a>.
-  <li>[2010-12-05] <strong>mu version 0.9.1</strong> released; fixes a couple
-  of issues users found with a missing icon, the unit-tests.
-  <li>[2010-12-04] <strong>mu version 0.9</strong> released. Compared to the
-  b�ta-release, there were a number of improvements to the documentation and
-  the unit tests. Pre-processing queries is a little bit smarter now, making
-  matching e-mail address more eager. Experimental support for Fedora-14.
-  <li>[2010-11-27] <strong>mu version 0.9-beta</strong> released. New
-  features: searching is now accent-insensitive; you can now search for
-  message priority (<tt>prio:</tt>), time-interval (<tt>date:</tt>) and
-  message flags (<tt>flag:</tt>). Also, you can now store ('bookmark')
-  often-used queries. To top it off, there is a simple graphical UI now,
-  called <tt>mug</tt>. Documentation has been update, and all known bugs have
-  been fixed.
-  <li>[2010-10-30] <strong>mu version 0.8</strong> released, with only some
-  small cosmetic updates compared to 0.8-beta. Hurray!
-  <li>[2010-10-23] <strong>mu version 0.8-beta</strong> released. The new
-  version brings <tt>mu extract</tt> for getting the attachments from
-  messages, improved searching (matching is a bit more 'greedy'), updated and
-  extended documentation, including the <tt>mu-easy</tt> manpage with simple
-  examples. All known non-enhancement bugs were fixed.
-
-<li>[2010-02-27] <strong>mu version 0.7</strong> released. Compared to the
-  beta version, there are few changes. The maildir-matching syntax now
-  contains a starting <tt>/</tt>, so <tt>~/Maildir/foo/bar/(cur|new)/msg</tt>
-  can be matched with <tt>m:/foo/bar</tt>. The top-level maildir can be
-  matched with <tt>m:/</tt>. Apart from that, there are so small cosmetic
-  fixes and documentation updates.
-  <li>[2010-02-11] <strong>mu version 0.7-beta</strong> released. A lot of changes:
-  <ul>
-    <li>Automatic database scheme version check, notifies users when an upgrade
-     is needed</li>
-     <li>Adds the <tt>mu view</tt> command, to view mail message files</li>
-     <li>Removes the 10K match limit</li>
-     <li>Support for unattended upgrades - that is, the database can automatically
-     by upgraded (--autoupgrade). Also, the log file is automatically cleaned
-     when it gets too big (unless you use --nocleanup)</li>
-     <li>Search for a certain Maildir using the
-     <tt>maildir:</tt>,<tt>m:</tt> search prefixes. For
-     example, you can find all messages located in <tt>~/Maildir/foo/bar/(cur|new)/msg</tt>
-      with <tt>m:foo/bar</tt>. This replaces the search for path/p in 0.6</li>
-   <li>Fixes for reported issues #17 and #18</li>
-   <li>A test suite with a growing number of unit tests</li>
-   <li>Updated documentation</li>
-   <li>Many internal refactoring and other changes</li>
-  </ul>
-  <p>This version has been tagged as <tt>v0.7-beta</tt> in repository, and must
-  be considered a code-complete preview of the upcoming release 0.7. Please
-  report any problems you encounter with it.</li>
-  </li>
-  
-  <li>[2010-01-23] <strong>mu version 0.6</strong> released. Changes compared
-  to the beta version are:
-  <ul>
-    <li>improved documentation, with more examples and more extensive
-    discussion of various technical aspects</li>
-    <li>some fixes, thanks to bug reports from beta-testers</li>
-    <li>added search for the the Message-Id field.</li>
-  </ul>
-
-  There is a separate branch for 0.6 in the git repository (see below), HEAD
-  will become 0.7</li>
-  </li>
-    
-  <li>[2010-01-16] <strong>mu version 0.6-beta</strong>. After some
-  hiatus in the release schedule, <tt>mu</tt> is back now! The new
-  version is a total overhaul of what was there before. It's smaller
-  and faster, and removes quite a bit of the (in the eyes of the
-  author) needless complexity.
-
-  It adds some new features that users asked for, such as a way to
-  exclude directories from indexing (simply put a file called
-  <tt>.noindex</tt> in it.
-
-  The queries are bit less featureful, the more useful parts will
-  slowly be added again in future versions.
-
-  Note, this is version 0.6-beta, the 'real' 0.6 will follow soon.</li>
-  
-  <li>[2008-11-01] <strong>mu version 0.4</strong> released. This version adds
-  extensions to the query language and the ability to get statistics about the
-  messages that match some queries. <tt>mu-index</tt> is substantially faster.
-  Also, <tt>mu-msginfo</tt> has been extended. Small optimizations have been
-  done, and some bugs have been fixed.  Finally, some GTK+-widgets have been
-  added; they are to be considered 'experimental'.</li>
-
-  <li>[2008-09-25] <strong>mu version 0.3</strong> released; this version adds
-  further signicant indexing speedups (esp. on <tt>ext3</tt>-file
-  systems). Added searching for relative dates ('3w' for 'three weeks ago');
-  search for message properties such as has-attachment/signed/encrypted;
-  search for message priority; updated documentation; define bookmarks for
-  search queries; more unit-tests.</li>
-
-  <li>[2008-09-10] <strong>mu version 0.2</strong> released; this version adds
-  supports for message-body searches (Xapian); indexing is much faster; added
-  Maildir++ support; sorting of results; added
-  <tt>mu-mkmdir</tt>/<tt>mu-msginfo</tt>. Improved documentation, unit
-  tests.</li>
-
-  <li>[2008-08-25] <strong>mu version 0.1</strong> released</li>
-
-</ul>
-
-<h2><a name="features" >features</a></h2>
-<strong><tt>mu find</tt></strong>:
-<ul>
-  <li>search for sender and recipient; subject,message body text</li>
-  <li>output to stdout, or as maildirs with links to the original messages</li>
-</ul>
-<strong><tt>mu index</tt></strong>:
-<ul>
-  <li>scan messages in recursive Maildirs, Maildir++ or separate files;</li>
-  <li>only changed messages are considered when re-indexing;</li>
-</ul>

-
-<tt>mu</tt> uses <a href="http://spruce.sourceforge.net/gmime/" >GMime
-2.4</a> and <a href="http://xapian.org" >Xapian</a>; you'll need to
-have those installed to build <tt>mu</tt>. On Debian/Ubuntu, the
-following should get you all you need:
-
-<pre> # apt-get install libxapian-dev libgmime-2.4-dev </pre>
-(obviously, you also need the normal build tools;
-<tt>gcc</tt>/<tt>g++</tt>, <tt>make</tt> and friends).
-
-<p>mu uses autotools, so building follows the normal
-<tt>./configure</tt>/<tt>make</tt> pattern.
-
-<p>This should work without any problems at least on recent Debian/Ubuntu, for
-both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures. If it does not work for your
