# The Pluses of MH

Here are two ways plus signs (+) are used in MH:

1. When you give the name of a folder to an MH command, you type a `+` before the folder name, with no space between them. An example is:

             % folder +test

2. When an MH command tells you the current folder, it often puts a `+` after the folder name. For example:

             test+ has   no messages.

   In both cases, `+` is not part of the folder name.
