Given the /enormous/ amounts of e-mail many people gather and the importance
of e-mail message in our work-flows, it's essential to quickly deal with all
that mail - in particular, to instantly find that one important e-mail you
need right now.
With the /enormous/ amounts of e-mail many people gather and the importance of
e-mail messages in our daily work-flow, it is very important to be able to
quickly deal with all that - in particular, to instantly find that one
important e-mail you need right now.

on Unix-like systems. *mu*'s main purpose is to help you to quickly find the
messages you need; in addition, it allows you to view messages, extract
attachments, create new maildirs, ... See the [[file:cheatsheet.org][mu cheatsheet]] for some examples.
For that, *mu* was created. *mu* is a tool for dealing with e-mail messages

can then be queried using a custom query language.

(=mug=) and bindings for the Guile/Scheme programming language.
