NEW(1mh)

NAME
new - report on folders with new messages

fnext - set current folder to next folder with new messages

fprev - set current folder to previous folder with new messages

unseen - scan new messages in all folders with new messages

SYNOPSIS

new [sequences] [-mode mode] [-folders foldersfile] [-Version] [-help]

fnext is equivalent to new -mode fnext

fprev is equivalent to new -mode fprev

unseen is equivalent to new -mode unseen

DESCRIPTION
New in its default mode produces a one-line-per-folder listing of all folders containing messages in the listed sequences or in the sequences listed in the profile entry `Unseen-Sequence'. Each line contains the folder, the number of messages in the desired sequences, and the message lists from the .mh_sequences file. For example:

    foo     11.* 40-50
    bar    380.  760-772 824-828
     total    391.

The `*' on foo indicates that it is the current folder. The last line shows the total number of messages in the desired sequences.

New crawls the folder hierarchy recursively to find all folders, and prints them in lexicographic order. Override this behavior by providing foldersfile containing the pre-sorted list of folders new should check, one per line.

In fnext and fprev modes, new instead changes to the next or previous matching folder, respectively.

In unseen mode, new executes scan sequences for each matching folder.
