How to list the Mail directory from the Terminal?
Is there a way to change the file or directory permissions so that I can list the contents of the Mail directory from the Terminal command-line in macOS 10.15.4?
When trying to list the contents, I currently get this error.
$ cd ~/Library/Mail
$ ls -l
ls: .: Operation not permitted
The Mail app works without issues. I can see the contents of the Mail folder in the Finder by using the Option key. On earlier macOS versions, I could list the contents from the Terminal without issues. But not any more after migrating to a new MacBook Pro running 10.15.4. What changed?
Solution 1:
You need to give Terminal Full Disk Access in System Preferences > Security.
