MU-MKDIR(1)                                                   General Commands Manual                                                  MU-MKDIR(1)

NAME
mu_mkdir - create a new Maildir SYNOPSIS
mu mkdir [options] <dir> [<dirs>] DESCRIPTION
mu mkdir is the mu sub-command for creating Maildirs. It does not use the mu database. With the mkdir command, you can create new Maildirs with permissions 0755. For example, mu mkdir tom dick harry creates three Maildirs, tom, dick and harry. If creation fails for whatever reason, no attempt is made to remove any parts that were created. This is for safety reasons. OPTIONS
--mode=<mode> set the file access mode for the new maildir(s) as in chmod(1). BUGS
Please report bugs if you find them: http://code.google.com/p/mu0/issues/list AUTHOR
