Watch for new messages and flag changes

Usage

lei add-watch [OPTIONS] LOCATION [LOCATION ...]

Overview

Tell lei to watch "LOCATION" for new messages and flag changes. Currently only Maildir locations are supported.

WARNING: watches are not always reliable, occasional use of lei-index(1) and lei-refresh-mail-sync(1) is recommended if lei-daemon(8) crashes or needs to be restarted. This will be improved in the future.
