NAME

       lsmboxrc - configuration file for lsmbox

DESCRIPTION

       A  lsmbox  configuration  file  consists  of a list of configuration options and their setting.	The hash mark ("#") is used as a "comment"
       character.  Every line beginning with a comment character is ignored.  Whitespace is also ignored.

COMMANDS

       set variable=value
	      Set a configuration variable to the specified value.

       unset variable
	      Unset a configuration variable.  This implies that the built-in default will be used instead.

       mailboxes filename...
	      Specifies what mailboxes to check.  You can have one or several of these lines.  Each line can contain the name of one or more mail-
	      boxes, each separated by a space.

	      A filename of ! denotes your inbox.  A leading ("=") or ("+") in a filename will be expanded into the path to your mail-directory.

CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

       folder The path to your mail-directory; this is usually $HOME/Mail/.

       lsmbox_mail_command
	      Specifies what command to execute when the user selects a mailbox in continuous mode.

       mark_old
	      Specifies whether or not old unread messages and new messages should be accounted separately.  If you explicitly unset this variable
	      using the unset command, the number of new and old messages will be added together  as  unread  messages,  otherwise  they  will	be
	      accounted as new and old respectively.

       mh_seq_unseen
	      Specifies  the  string  used  in the .mh_sequences file to list new/old unread messages.	If this variable is not set, or explicitly
	      unset, "unseen" will be used.

       spoolfile
	      The path to where the system keeps your inbox; usually /var/mail/USERNAME or /var/spool/mail/USERNAME.

       lsmbox_padding
	      The width of the mailbox column.	To never add additional padding beyond what's needed to align all values, specify '0' here.

COMMENTS

       You cannot specify a path or mailbox that contains whitespace characters (space, newline, etc.)	Do not bug me  about  this.   Having  such
       filenames/pathnames is stupid anyway.

       I've  deliberately tried to use the same syntax as mutt uses for its configuration-file muttrc whenever possible, to facilitate sourcing of
       $HOME/.lsmboxrc from your $HOME/.muttrc.  lsmbox_mail_command will, however, cause mutt to emit an error.
