The mutt
email client is text-based. Linux
and UNIX® distributions often include mutt
. You can import your email easily from mutt
to Email and Calendar
because mutt
uses the standard mbox, maildir, and mh formats.
By default, mutt
stores your email as follows:
Format |
Directory |
---|---|
mbox |
~/mbox |
maildir |
~/Maildir |
