MAILESTD(8) FreeBSD System Manager's Manual MAILESTD(8)

mailestd
mailest daemon

mailestd [-dnh] [-S suffix] [-f file] [maildir]

The mailestd is a daemon which provides the “search” functionality for mail messages using and managing a Hyper Estraier's database. Currently the mailestd can be use as a “search” backend of the “Mew”. To use the mailest for the search backend for the Mew program, see the EXAMPLE section in mew-mailest(1).

The options are as follows:

Increase debug level. Do not daemonize and log to the stderr.
Do not actually start the daemon. But checks the configuration file.
