mutt: Open the specified mailbox.
$ mutt -f ${mailbox}
try on your machine
The command "mutt -f ${mailbox}" is used to open and view emails in the specified mailbox using the Mutt email client. Here, "${mailbox}" is a placeholder for the actual mailbox file or directory.
The "-f" option is used to specify the mailbox file or directory that Mutt should open. By providing the path to the mailbox as the value of "${mailbox}", Mutt will open that mailbox and display its contents.
For example, if you have a mailbox file named "inbox" in your home directory, you can open it using the command "mutt -f ~/inbox". Mutt will then display the emails in that mailbox, allowing you to read, reply, delete, and perform other actions on them.
