NAME
mu-view - display an e-mail message file
SYNOPSIS
mu [common options] view [options] [<file> ...]
DESCRIPTION
mu view is the mu command for displaying e-mail message files. It works on message files and does not require the message to be indexed in the database.
The command shows some common headers (From:, To:, Cc:, Bcc:, Subject: and Date:), the list of attachments and either the plain-text or html body of the message (if any), or its s-expression representation.
If no message file is provided, the command reads the message from standard-input.
VIEW OPTIONS
--format,-o
= <format>
use the given output format, one of:
— |
plain - use the plain-text body; this is the default | ||
— |
html - use the HTML body | ||
— |
sexp - show the S-expression representation of the message |
--summary-len=<number>
instead of displaying the full message, output a summary
based upon the first <number> lines of the
message.
--terminate
terminate messages with \f (form-feed)
characters when displaying them. This is useful when you
want to further process them.
--decrypt
attempt to decrypt encrypted message bodies. This is only
possible if mu was built with crypto-support.
--auto-retrieve
attempt to retrieve crypto-keys automatically from the
network, when needed.
COMMON OPTIONS
-d,
--debug
makes mu generate extra debug information, useful for
debugging the program itself. By default, debug information
goes to the log file, ~/.cache/mu/mu.log. It can safely be
deleted when mu is not running. When running with --debug
option, the log file can grow rather quickly. See the note
on logging below.
-q,
--quiet
causes mu not to output informational messages and progress
information to standard output, but only to the log file.
Error messages will still be sent to standard error. Note
that mu index is much faster with --quiet, so it is
recommended you use this option when using mu from scripts
etc.
--log-stderr
causes mu to not output log messages to standard error, in
addition to sending them to the log file.
--nocolor
do not use ANSI colors. The environment variable
NO_COLOR can be used as an alternative to
--nocolor.
-V,
--version
prints mu version and copyright information.
-h,
--help
lists the various command line options.
