lei-export-kw(1)

lei-export-kw1

Export keywords (flags) to maildir and imap folders

Usage

lei export-kw --all [{<remote | local>}]

lei export-kw MFOLDER [MFOLDER ...]

Overview

"lei export-kw" propagates keywords (e.g. "seen", "answered", "flagged", etc.) from lei/store to IMAP folders and/or Maildirs. It only works for messages lei knows about (e.g. was used as a "lei q --output", or imported via lei-import(1), or indexed via lei-index(1)).

It does not delete, write, nor modify messages themselves; it only sets metadata on Maildirs and IMAP folders.

Options

--all

Export to all local Maildirs and remote IMAP folders

--all=local

Export all local Maildirs

--all=remote

Export all remote IMAP folders
