NAME

       sup-sync - sychronize the Sup index with message sources

SYNOPSIS

       sup-sync [options] source ...

DESCRIPTION

       Synchronizes  the  Sup index with one or more message sources by adding messages, deleting messages, or changing message state in the index
       as appropriate.

       "Message state" means read/unread, archived/inbox, starred/unstarred, and all user-defined labels on each message.

       "Default source state" refers to any state that a source itself has keeps about a message. Sup-sync uses this information when adding a new
       message	to  the  index. The source state is typically limited to read/unread, archived/inbox status and a single label based on the source
       name. Messages using the default source state are placed in the inbox (i.e. not archived) and unstarred.

       If no sources are given, sync from all usual sources. Supported source URI schemes can be seen by running "sup-add --help".

MESSAGE STATE OPTIONS

       --asis If the message is already in the index, preserve its state. Otherwise, use default source state (default)

       --restore dumpfile
	      Restore message state from a dump file created with sup-dump. If a message is not in this dumpfile, act as --asis

       --discard
	      Discard any message state in the index and use the default source state.	Dangerous!

       --archive, -x
	      When using the default source state, mark messages as archived.

       --read, -r
	      When using the default source state, mark messages as read.

       --extra-labels labels
	      When using the default source state, also apply these user-defined labels (a comma-separated list) (default)

OTHER OPTIONS

       --verbose, -v
	      Print message ids as they're processed.

       --optimize, -o
	      As the final operation, optimize the index.

       --all-sources
	      Scan over all sources.

       --dry-run, -n
	      Don't actually modify the index. Probably only useful with --verbose.

       --version
	      Show version information

       --help, -h
	      Show help message
