Folder commands are located in the Folder listing area. This area is not always shown and is activated by the checkbutton menu item named Show Folder commands under the Folder... menu button. At the top of the folder listing area is a menu bar containing horizontal resizing buttons, a Folder commands... menu button, and a Kill button (X) that will turn off the display of this area.
Commands available are described below:
- Update folder list and menus
- Selecting this menu item will cause the ~/Messages directory to be rescanned for .hdr files. All subdirectories are examined in this process and a count of the number of msg.* files in the folder is kept and displayed for each folder. Please note that if you have a large number of folders and messages and the directory is NFS mounted, it can take considerable time to scan the inodes and count the msg.* files.
