NAME

       bookmarks - file with bookmarks (shortcuts) for mu search expressions

DESCRIPTION

       Bookmarks  are  named  shortcuts  for  search  queries. They allow using a convenient name for often-used
       queries. The bookmarks are also visible as shortcuts in the mu  experimental  user  interfaces,  mug  and
       mug2.

       mu  supports  bookmarks stored in a file called bookmarks in the mu home directory (typically, this would
       be ~/.mu/bookmarks).

       The bookmarks file is a typical key=value .ini-file, which is best shown by means of an example:

           [mu]
           inbox=maildir:/inbox                  # inbox
           oldhat=maildir:/archive subject:hat   # archived with subject containing 'hat'

       The [mu] group header is required.

       For practical uses of bookmarks, see mu-find(1).

LOCATION

       The bookmarks file is read from <muhome>/bookmarks. Typically, this would be  ~/.mu/bookmarks,  but  this
       can be influenced using the --muhome parameter for mu-find(1) and mug(1).
