Plain text email delivered via *mu*[fn:1], *mu4e*[fn:2] and *mbsync*[fn:3]. I run my *own email server*[fn:4], so your configuration may differ from mine. |

This is the *mbsyncrc*[fn:3] file I use to synchronize my local mail with my server. |

The system typically expects to find this file at ~$HOME/.mbsyncrc~, but you may also specify a custom path if launching the command using arguments. I chose to symlink the default location to my repository. |

* Indexing |

:PROPERTIES: |

|
|

|
Once mail has been synchronized you need to index it using *mu*[fn:1]. |
||||
|
|
||||
|
#+begin_src shell |
||||
|
mbsync -a |
||||
|
mu index --maildir="~/.cache/mail" |
||||
|
#+end_src |
||||
|
|
||||
|
* Integration |
||||
|
|
||||
|
After syncing and indexing the mail is ready to be used inside of Emacs. Download and install *mu4e*[fn:2] and configure the *mail account*[fn:3]. |
||||
|
|
||||
|
+ Update every 5 minutes |
||||
|
+ Scale text for all devices |
||||
|
+ Sign outbound mail with GPG key |
||||
|
+ Configure mail account(s) |
