Bug#158851: ITP: mairix -- indexing and searching email messages stored in Maildir or MH folders.



Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2002-08-30
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : mairix
  Version         : 0.4

  Description     : indexing and searching email messages stored in Maildir or MH folders.

mairix is a program for indexing and searching email messages stored in Maildir or MH folders.

* Indexing is fast. It runs incrementally on new messages - any
particular message only gets scanned once in the lifetime of the index
file.

* The search mode populates a "virtual" maildir folder with symlinks
which point to the real messages. This folder can be opened as usual
in your mail program.

* The search mode is very fast.

* Indexing and searching works on the basis of words. The index file
tabulates which words occur in which parts (particular headers + body)
of which messages.
