NAME
       lei-import - one-time import of messages into local store


SYNOPSIS
       lei import [OPTIONS] LOCATION [LOCATION...] [+L:LABEL]

       lei import [OPTIONS] (--stdin|-)


DESCRIPTION
       Import messages into the local storage of lei(1).  "LOCATION" is a source of messages: a directory
       (Maildir), a file, or a URL ("imap://", "imaps://", "nntp://", or "nntps://").  URLs requiring
       authentication use git-credential(1) to fill in the username and password.

       For a regular file, the "LOCATION" must have a "<format>:" prefix specifying one of the following
       formats: "mboxrd", "mboxcl2", "mboxcl", or "mboxo".


OPTIONS
       -F MAIL_FORMAT
       --in-format=MAIL_FORMAT
           Message  input  format.  Unless messages are given on stdin, using a format prefix with "LOCATION" is
           preferred.

       --stdin
           Read messages from stdin.

       --lock
           mbox(5) locking method(s) to use: "dotlock", "fcntl", "flock" or "none".

           Default: fcntl,dotlock

       +L:LABEL
           Add the given "LABEL" to all messages imported, where "LABEL"  is  an  arbitrary  user-defined  value
           consisting of lowercase and digits.  See lei-tag(1) for more info on labels.

           For example, specifying "+L:inbox" applies the "inbox" label to all messages being imported.

           May be specified multiple times to apply multiple labels.

           Default: none

       +kw:KEYWORD
           Apply "KEYWORD" to all messages being imported in addition to any per-message keywords from the store
           (unless "--no-kw" is specified).  See lei-tag(1) for more info on keywords.

           May be specified multiple times to apply multiple keywords.

           Default: none

       --no-kw
           Don't import message keywords (or "flags" in IMAP terminology).

       --no-incremental
           Import already seen IMAP and NNTP articles.

       --torsocks=auto|no|yes
       --no-torsocks
           Whether to wrap git(1) and curl(1) commands with torsocks(1).

           Default: "auto"

       --proxy=PROTOCOL://HOST[:PORT]
           Use the specified proxy (e.g., "socks5h://0:9050").
