3.3 frm -- List Headers from a Mailbox
The frm command outputs a header information of
the selected messages in a mailbox. By default, frm reads the
user's system mailbox and outputs the contents of From and
Subject headers for each message. If a folder is specified in
the command line, the program reads that folder rather than the default
mailbox.
The program uses following option groups: See section 3.1.2 Mailbox.
The following command line options alter the behavior of the program:
- `-f string'
- `--field string'
- Display the header named by string instead of
From
Subject pair.
- `-l'
- `--to'
- Include the contents of
To header to the output. The output field
order is then: To From Subject.
- `-n'
- `--number'
- Prefix each line with corresponding message number.
- `-Q'
- `--Quiet'
- Be very quiet. Nothing is output except error messages. This is useful
in shell scripts where only the return status of the program is
important.
- `-q'
- `--query'
- Print a message only if there are unread messages in the mailbox.
- `-S'
- `--summary'
- Print a summary line.
- `-s attr'
- `--status attr'
- Only display headers from messages with the given status.
Attr may be one of the following: `new', `read',
`unread'. It is sufficient to specify only first letter of
an attr. Multiple `-s' options are allowed.
- `-t'
- `--align'
- Tidy mode. Currently is not implemented. Included for compatibility with
frm program from Elm package.
