NAME

       mboxcheck - MBOX mail checking program.

SYNOPSIS

       mboxcheck [options] [file [...] ]

DESCRIPTION

       MBOXcheck is a simple mailbox checker. Give some options and at least one mailbox file as an argument and it will print some status of how
       many messages there are and which status they have.

OPTIONS

	 --help 	The help text.
	   -h
	 --version	The version information about this tool.
	   -V
	 --showon [v][?]
			When to show a mailbox in the list.
			[v] - verbose, always show.
			[?] - show when count is above 0 for the below types, see
			      --show what for more information about that.
			The default is to trigger only on new messages (--showon new).
	 --show [n][s][r][o][a][d]
			What counts to show. The caracter in the bracket is
			the short form. The what string can be comma separated
			to specify more than one option. Multiple --show options
			will add more (and will not remove shows).
			[n] - new (new messages)
			[s] - seen (seen but not read messages)
			[r] - read (read and answered messages)
			[o] - onlyread (just read messages)
			[a] - answered (answered messages)
			[d] - deleted (deleted messages)
			The default is to show new and seen messages (--show ns).
	 --recurse	This option will tell the tool to recurse into
	   -R -r	subdirectories.
	 --nosymlink	Tell the program to ignore symlinked files and directories.
	 --cachedir dir A temporary directory to use for speedup cache
			(default ~/.mboxcheckcache)
	 --nocache	Do not use a temporary directory.

CACHE

       The cache file is named after the path to the file with slash caracters '/' replaced with two commas ',,'. The content is a list of comma
       separated values; last position, new, seen, only read, answered and deleted mail.
