#### 3.2.7 The `debug` Statement ¶

#### Syntax ¶

    debug {
      # Set Mailutils debugging level.
      level spec;

      # Prefix debug messages with Mailutils source locations.
      line-info bool;
    }

#### Description ¶

The ‘`debug`’ statement controls the amount of additional debugging information output by Mailutils programs. The ‘`level`’ statement enables additional debugging information. Its argument (spec) is a Mailutils debugging specification as described in Debugging.

The ‘`line-info`’ statement, when set to ‘`true`’ causes debugging messages to be prefixed with locations in Mailutils source files where they appear. Normally, only Mailutils developers need this option.
