LEI-TAG(1) public-inbox user manual LEI-TAG(1) NAME lei-tag - set/unset metadata on messages SYNOPSIS lei tag [OPTIONS] FILE [FILE...] METADATA [METADATA...] lei tag [OPTIONS] (-|--stdin) METADATA [METADATA...] DESCRIPTION Set or unset volatile metadata on messages. In JMAP terms, "volatile metadata" includes "mailboxes" (analogous to a folder or label) and a restricted set of "keywords". This supported keywords are the combination of system keywords (seen, answered, flagged, and draft), which map to Maildir flags and mbox Status/X-Status headers, as well as reserved keywords (forwarded, phishing, junk, and notjunk). To add a label or keyword, prefix it with "+L:" and "+kw:", respectively. To remove a label or keyword, use "-L:" or "-kw:". For example, "+kw:flagged" would set the "flagged" keyword for the specified messages, and "-L:INBOX" would remove the "INBOX" label. OPTIONS -F MAIL_FORMAT --in-format=MAIL_FORMAT Message input format: "eml", "mboxrd", "mboxcl2", "mboxcl", or "mboxo". Default: "eml" -q --quiet Suppress feedback messages. LABELS Labels are user-defined values analogous to IMAP/JMAP mailbox names. They must only contain lowercase characters, digits, and a limited amount of punctuation (e.g. ".", "-", "@"). Messages may have multiple labels. KEYWORDS Keywords are "flags" in Maildir and IMAP terminology. Common keywords include: "seen", "answered", "flagged", and "draft", though "forwarded", "phishing", "junk", and "notjunk" are also supported. When writing to various mboxes, the common keywords will be mapped to the "Status" and "X-Status" headers. Messages may have multiple keywords.
