mairix is a program for indexing and searching email messages stored in Maildir, MH, MMDF or mbox folders. * Indexing is fast. It runs incrementally on new messages - any particular message only gets scanned once in the lifetime of the index file. * The search mode populates a "virtual" folder with symlinks(*) which point to the real messages. This folder can be opened as usual in your mail program. * The search mode is very fast. * Indexing and searching works on the basis of words. The index file tabulates which words occur in which parts (particular headers + body) of which messages. The program is a very useful complement to mail programs like mutt (http://www.mutt.org/, which supports Maildir, MH and mbox folders) and Sylpheed (which supports MH folders). The original author of mairix is Richard P. Curnow <[email protected]>. It is maintained since 2017 by Kim Vandry <[email protected]>. [(*) where the input or output folder is an mbox, a copy of the message is made instead of symlinking.] ********************************************************************* Copyright (C) Richard P.
