.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBmu\fR is a set of tools for dealing with e-mail messages in
Maildirs. There are many options, which are all described in the man
pages for the various sub-commands. This man pages jumps over all of
the details and gives examples of some common use cases. If the use
cases described here do not precisely do what you want, please check
the more extensive information in the man page about the sub-command
you are using -- for example, the \fBmu-index\fR(1) or \fBmu-find\fR(1)
man pages.

\fBNOTE\fR: the \fBindex\fR command (and therefore, the ones that
depend on that, such as \fBfind\fR), require that you store your mail
in the Maildir-format. If you don't do so, you can still use the other
commands, but you won't be able to index/search your mail.

you won't be able to index/search your mail.
By default, \fBmu\fR uses colorized output when it thinks your terminal is
capable of doing so. If you don't like color, you can use the \fB--nocolor\fR
command-line option, or set either the \fBMU_NOCOLOR\fR or the \fBNO_COLOR\fR
environment variable to non-empty.
.SH SETTING THINGS UP
The first time you run the mu commands, you need to initialize it. This is done
with the \fBinit\fR command.
.nf
\fB$ mu init\fR
.fi
This uses the defaults (see \fBmu-init(1)\fR for details on how to change that).
