smmapd - Cyrus IMAP documentation
Sendmail socket map daemon
smmapd [ -C config-file ] [ -U uses ] [ -T timeout ] [ -D ]
smmapd is a Sendmail socket map daemon which is used to verify that a
Cyrus mailbox exists, that it is postable and it is under quota. It accepts
commands on its standard input and responds on its standard output. It MUST be
invoked by master(8) with those descriptors attached to a remote client
connection.
smmapd reads its configuration options out of the
imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C.
- -C config-file
- Use the specified configuration file config-file rather than the
default imapd.conf(5).
- -U uses
- The maximum number of times that the process should be used for new
connections before shutting down. The default is 250.
- -T timeout
- The number of seconds that the process will wait for a new connection
before shutting down. Note that a value of 0 (zero) will disable the
timeout. The default is 60.
- -D
- Run external debugger specified in debug_command.
smmapd is commonly included in the SERVICES section of cyrus.conf(5) like
so:
SERVICES {
imap cmd="imapd -U 30" listen="imap" prefork=0
imaps cmd="imapd -s -U 30" listen="imaps" prefork=0 maxchild=100
