bincimap-udatecache(7)

NAME
bincimap-updatecache

SYNOPSIS
bincimap-updatecache <maildir>

DESCRIPTION
bincimap-updatecache reads the messages available at <maildir> and re-generates the binc-cache file in this directory.

INVOCATION
bincimap-updatecache is called by the owner of the <maildepot>. Given the Maildir++ format, a <maildir> is either Maildir or one of the sub-directories indicated via a dot: .submaildir. Instead of nested subdirectories, .submaildir ist just the first level <maildir>. Nesting is realized by concatination of <maildir> names with a dot. bincimap-updatecache generates the file bincimap-cache for only this sub-directory given by its path name:
      bincimap-updatecache Maildir/.maildirname
bincimap-updatecache considers by default the Maildir++ format, including the new, cur, and tmp sub-directories. In case the <maildepot> is given as IMAPdir bincimap-updatecache, requires the setting of DEPOT=IMAPdir as exported environment variable.
