\fB\-\-rebuild\fR
clear all messages from the database before
indexing. This is effectively the same as removing the database. The
difference with \fB\-\-reindex\fR is that \fB\-\-rebuild\fR guarantees that
after the indexing has finished, there are no 'old' messages in the database
anymore, which is not true with \fB\-\-reindex\fR when indexing only a part of
messages (using \fB\-\-maildir\fR). For this reason, it is necessary to run
\fBmu index \-\-rebuild\fR when there is an upgrade in the database
format. \fBmu index\fR will issue a warning about this.
