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
              mailboxes, 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.
