MU MKDIR(1) General Commands Manual MU MKDIR(1) NAME mu-mkdir - create a new Maildir SYNOPSIS mu [COMMON-OPTIONS] mkdir [OPTIONS] DIR... DESCRIPTION mu mkdir is the command for creating Maildirs as per maildir(5). A maildir is a a directory with subdirectories new, cur and tmp. The command does not use the mu database. If creation fails for any reason, no attempt is made to remove any parts that were created. This is for safety reasons. MKDIR OPTIONS --mode mode Set the file access mode for the new maildir(s) as in chmod(1). The de- fault is 0755. COMMON OPTIONS -d, --debug Makes mu generate extra debug information, useful for debugging the program itself. Debug information goes to the standard logging loca- tion; see mu(1). -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 standard logging location. --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. EXAMPLE $ mu mkdir tom dick harry creates three maildirs, tom, dick and harry. REPORTING BUGS Please report bugs at https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues. AUTHOR Dirk-Jan C.
