exchange-fs mounts my Microsoft Exchange mailbox as an ordinary directory tree, so I can reach my email with the tools I already love. Folders become directories, messages become files, and `rg`, `grep`, `cat`, `find`, and friends just work against years of mail.

It's part of a little theme I've been chasing — turning awkward, API-walled services into plain filesystems — so searching my inbox feels exactly like searching a codebase.
