flags-parameter is case-sensitive. Any other characters will be silently
ignored.
The \fB\-\-flags\fR also has a second, 'delta', syntax. In this syntax, each
of the flag characters is prefixed with either '+' or '-', which means that
the corresponding flag will be added or removed. Using this syntax, you can
change individual flags, without changing all of them.

.SH EXAMPLE
@ -76,23 +86,30 @@ To mark a message as no longer new and 'Seen', and update the database
afterwards, you could do:
.nf
mu --flags=S mv /home/roger/Maildir/inbox/new/123123123 /home/roger/Maildir/inbox/
mu mv /home/roger/Maildir/inbox/new/123123123 /home/roger/Maildir/inbox/ --flags=S
.fi
In this case, as we are not moving the message to a diffent maildir, we can
leave off the maildir-argument; so the following is equivalent:
.nf
mu --flags=S mv /home/roger/Maildir/inbox/new/123123123
mu mv /home/roger/Maildir/inbox/new/123123123 --flags=S
.fi
Finally, using the 'delta'-syntax, you can set the 'seen'-flag
and 'replied'-flag while removing the 'new' flag with:
.nf
mu mv /home/billy/Maildir/inbox/new/12aa34343 --flags=+S+R-N
.fi
which would give us a new file:
\fI/home/billy/Maildir/inbox/cur/12aa34343:2,SR\fR
.SH LIMITATIONS
Both source-path and target-directory must be on the same disk partition,
except when the target-directory is \fI/dev/null\fR.
.SH RETURN VALUE
\fBmu mv\fR returns 0 upon success, and some other value when an error
