| | =head1 NAME
lei - an overview of lei
=head1 DESCRIPTION
L<lei(1)> is a local email interface for public-inbox. This document
provides some basic examples.
=head1 LEI STORE
L<lei-init(1)> initializes writable local storage based on
L<public-inbox-v2-format(5)>.
=head2 EXAMPLES
=over
=item $ lei import --format=mboxrd t.mbox
Import the messages from an mbox into the local storage.
=back
=head1 EXTERNALS
In addition to the above store, lei can make read-only queries to
"externals": inboxes and external indices. An external can be
registered by passing a URL or local path to L<lei-add-external(1)>.
For existing local paths, the external needs to be indexed with
L<public-inbox-index(1)> (in the case of a regular inbox) or
L<public-inbox-extindex(1)> (in the case of an external index).
=head2 EXAMPLES
=over
=item $ lei add-external https://public-inbox.org/meta/
Add a remote external for public-inbox's inbox.
=item $ lei add-external --mirror https://public-inbox.org/meta/ path
Clone L<https://public-inbox.org/meta/> to C<path>, index it with
L<public-inbox-index(1)>, and add it as a local external.
=back
=head1 SEARCHING
The L<lei-q(1)> command searches the local store and externals. The
search prefixes match those available via L<public-inbox-httpd(1)>.
=head2 EXAMPLES
=over
=item $ lei q s:lei s:skeleton
Search for messages whose subject includes "lei" and "skeleton".
=item $ lei q -t s:lei s:skeleton
Do the same, but also report unmatched messages that are in the same
thread as a matched message.
=item $ lei q -t -o t.mbox -f mboxcl2 --mua=mutt s:lei s:skeleton
Write mboxcl2-formatted results to t.mbox and enter mutt to view the
file by invoking C<mutt -f %f>.
