NAME
       ifrom - one line per message summary of IMAP mailbox

SYNOPSIS
       ifrom [-l][-s][-n][-t][-f][-d][-h] mailbox

DESCRIPTION
       ifrom  is  a program which produces a one-line-per-message summary of a
       mailbox using the IMAP protocol.	 The summary line contains:
	    Msg# Status:	From:	       Date	 Subject:

       The mailbox argument is required and can	 be  any  valid	 IMAP  mailbox
       specification.	Typically  one	would use: {imapserver.domain}inbox to
       summarize     their     inbox.	    The	     specification:	 {new‐
       shost.domain/nntp}comp.os.unix can be used to summarize the contents of
       a newsgroup.

       If the -h flag is given, some very crude usage is supplied.

       If the -l flag is given, the From: and Subject: fields  are  not	 trun‐
       cated  to  fit  an 80 column terminal display.  This makes ifrom output
       suitable for piping to grep.

       If the -s flag is given, the Status field is omitted  making  the  from
       field longer.

       If  the	-n flag is given, the Msg# field is omitted making the subject
       field longer.

       If the -d flag is given, the date field is omitted (including the time)
       making the subject field longer.

       If  the -t flag is given, the time portion of the date field is omitted
       making the subject field longer.

       If the -f flag is given, From: Real Name <email> is re-written as email
       (Real Name).

EXAMPLES
       Check most recent mail:
	    ifrom '{mailserver}inbox' | tail
       Note that the quotes are required to protect the braces from the shell.

       Look for news postings with summary lines matching 'search-pattern':
	    ifrom -l '{news/nntp}comp.os.pine' | grep search-pattern

BUGS
       Most likely there are some.
