Within the mail system (see elm(1) with no operands and optionally the or option, displays the appropriate headers and the body of the cur-
rent message.
With the number-list operand and no options, displays the corresponding messages and a summary of the headers from your incoming mailbox.
With the pattern operand and no options, displays the first message that matches the pattern and a summary of the headers from your incom-
ing mailbox.
Options

Use file folder for the operations instead of the incoming mailbox.
Include the entire header of the matched message or messages
when displaying their text. The default is to display the and lines only.
Exclude all headers.
Put form feeds (
between message headers. This is useful when printing sets of messages.
Operands
supports the following operands.

25 at a time. The character means the last message in the mail file. Similarly, represents every message in the
file (i.e.,
The message numbers are sorted into ascending order. Thus, produces the same output as
pattern A string that is present in one of the messages. This pattern can be typed in directly (no quotes) if the words are
separated by a single space in the actual message. The pattern matching is case sensitive, so and are not equiva-
lent. Leading digits (on the first word) are not permitted; however, you can precede them with a space and quote the
entire string, if the space occurs in the message, as in .
EXAMPLES
