NAMEdbmail-imapd - provides access to the DBMail system to clients supporting Internet Message Access Protocol, IMAP4r1, as specified in RFC 3501.SYNOPSISdbmail-imapd [-f configfile] [-p pidfile] [-nvVh]DESCRIPTIONThe dbmail-imapd daemon is a fully featured IMAP4r1 server.OPTIONS-p pidfileSpecify an alternate pid file. By default the daemons use
dbmail-<daemon>.pid for their pid files, saving them in the directory
specified by the pid_directory entry in dbmail.conf or if that does not exist
the value set by the configuration option --localstatedir, and will halt if
the pid file cannot be written. Use the -p pidfile option to place the pid
file in your system’s preferred location.
-n No daemonize: inetd mode. The program remains attached to
the console from which it was started and will read and write on stdin/stdout.
This is quite useful for debugging when combined with the -v option. It is
also used for running from (x)inetd.
-D No daemonize: init mode. The program remains attached to
the console and will listen on the network sockets defined in dbmail.conf.
This is mostly used when running from inittab or under the control of
daemontools.
COMMON OPTIONS-f configfileSpecify an alternate config file. The utilities are
currently hardcoded to use /etc/dbmail.conf for their configs, and will halt
if the config file cannot be found. Use the -f configfile option to specify
your system’s preferred config file location. Debian is patched to have
/etc/dbmail/dbmail.conf as the default.
-q Quietly skip interactive prompts and helpful status
messages which would otherwise be printed to stdout. Use two -q’s to
silence errors which would otherwise be printed to stderr.
-v Operate verbosely. Some of the utilities in the DBMail
suite can take two -v’s for extra verbosity. Those which don’t
understand this convention won’t complain about having the extra -v and
will simply operate at their normal verbosity.
-V Show the version and copyright, then exit.
-h Show a brief summary of options, then exit.
EXAMPLEFor xinetd-----------------------------------------------------------
# /etc/xinet.d/dbmail-imap # service imap { socket_type = stream wait = no
user = root server = /usr/local/sbin/dbmail-imapd protocol = tcp server_args =
-n log_on_failure += USERID disable = no }
-----------------------------------------------------------
For stunnel -----------------------------------------------------------
pid = /var/run/stunnel.pid cert = /etc/stunnel/yourkeys.pem
# The next two sections will turn stunnel # into a 'secure inetd'. This is mutually # exclusive with the proxy sections below. [dbmail-pop3d] accept = 995 exec = /usr/local/sbin/dbmail-pop3d execargs = dbmail-pop3d -n [dbmail-imapd] accept = 993 exec = /usr/local/sbin/dbmail-imapd execargs = dbmail-imapd -n # The next two sections will proxy # from the secure protocol over to # the insecure protocol. In this case, # use BINDIP=localhost in dbmail.conf! [pop3s] accept = 995 connect = 110 [imaps] accept = 993 connect = 143 # Useful if your preferred SMTP server doesn't do SSL/TLS. # This is with your MTA configuration, not DBMail, per se. [ssmtp] accept = 465 connect = 25 ----------------------------------------------------------- BUGSIf you experience inexplicable problems with DBMail, please report the issue to the DBMail Bug Tracker[1].LICENSEDBMail and its components are distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License.
