# mu4e-overview.el - Show overview of maildir #

This Emacs package lets you see a hierarchy of maildirs in a separate buffer:

```
[email protected]
[Gmail]
.Trash [0/25]
.Starred [0/0]
.Spam [0/3]
.Sent Mail [0/4]
.Important [0/21]
.Drafts [0/0]
.All Mail [0/56]
Trash [0/0]
Inbox [2/45]
```

## Usage ##

`M-x mu4e-overview` displays a buffer with a list of all maildirs. The root
maildir can be set via the variable `mu4e-maildir`.

The number of unread and total number of emails is displayed next to each
maildir in this format: `[UNREAD-COUNT/TOTAL-COUNT]`. If UNREAD-COUNT is not
zero, that maildir is highlighted.

Use n and p keys to go to next/previous maildir (or alternatively,
tab/backtab). Use [ and ] keys to go to previous/next *unread* maildir.

When you click on a maildir or type RET when point is on it, mu4e headers view
is displayed, which shows messages only in that maildir. Type `C-u RET` to
show only unread messages.

## API ##

The package also provides the function `mu4e-overview-gather` which returns the
folder hierarchy and asynchronously counts the number of total and unread
counts for each folder. This can be used to build a custom view of the folder
hierarchy. See it's documentation for details.
