bincimapd(1) General Commands Manual bincimapd(1) NAME bincimapd - IMAP4rev1 server SYNOPSIS bincimap-up [ options... ] -- <authenticator> bincimapd DESCRIPTION Binc IMAP is a simple xinetd / tcpserver invoked IMAP4rev1 server with sup- port for Maildir. It is very easy to install and use. To configure Binc IMAP, use either command line arguments, configuration file entries, or a combination of both. Note that command line arguments always override config file options. OPTIONS Command line arguments are optional. The default behavior is to inherit op- tions from bincimap-up through the environment. Passing arguments to bincimapd will override settings inherited from bincimap-up. bincimapd takes one optional unqualified argument in addition to regular command line options: the Mailbox path. Appending a path as an option to bincimapd will override any mailbox path set by command line options or in- herited from bincimap-up. For a complete listing of options for bincimapd, see the bincimap-up man page. Local options are read through the file .bincimap, located at the current working directory that bincimapd is invoked in, before it enters the depos- itory path. FILES All Binc IMAP's configuration files use the same Binc::Storage format. It's basically a sequence of named sections enclosed in {braces}, each contain- ing a set of comma separated key=value pairs. The keys must be alphanu- meric, and the values can contain any character if it's quoted. $HOME/.bincimap Local configurations file. This file has a similar structure to the global bincimap.conf file, and it can be set by each user to over- ride both command line arguments and the global configuration. It only works for a few selected options, though. $HOME/<maildepot>/.../bincimap-uidvalidity This file contains a version number, and the UIDNEXT and UIDVALIDITY values for the given mailbox. $HOME/<maildepot>/.../bincimap-cache This file contains a version number, and it stores the UID values for each message, along with (optionally) some cached information. ENVIRONMENT bincimapd reads its configuration from the environment, as passed by bincimap-up. In addition, bincimapd reads the variable BINCIMAP_LOGIN which contains a message from bincimap-up with the tag and command used to au- thenticate, separated by a +. If the tag and command used to authenticate were "1 LOGIN", then BINCIMAP_LOGIN would be set to "LOGIN+1". Note that it is essential that the authenticator invoked by bincimap-up does not clear the environment.
