=head1 NAME

mdmv - safely move messages between maildirs

=head1 SYNOPSYS

 mdmv MSG [MSG..] DEST

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<mdmv> moves one or more messages, from one or more maildirs, to a
single destination maildir.  It does this in a way that should not
confuse maildir synchronisation tools.

B<mdmv> tries to be sure not to overwrite any existing files, but it
does not try as hard to "deliver" the mail to the destination maildir
as a real MDA would, giving up rather earlier.  Thus, B<mdmv> is
intended to be used by scripts running on the same host upon which the
maildirs are actually stored.

=head1 OPTIONS

None.

=head1 SEE ALSO

maildir(5)

B<mdmv> was written by Sean Whitton <spwhitton@spwhitton.name>.
