pop3d - POP3 server process
SYNOPSIS
pop3d [ -C config-file ] [ -U uses ] [ -T timeout ] [ -D ]
[ -s ] [ -k ]
DESCRIPTION
Pop3d is a POP3 server. It accepts commands on its stan-
dard input and responds on its standard output. It MUST
invoked by master(8) with those descriptors attached to a
remote client connection.
Pop3d reads its configuration options out of the
imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C.
If the directory log/user exists under the directory spec-
ified in the configdirectory configuration option, then
pop3d will create protocol telemetry logs for sessions
authenticating as user. The telemetry logs will be stored
in the log/user directory with a filename of the pop3d
process-id.
OPTIONS-C config-file
Read configuration options from config-file.
-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.
-s Serve POP3 over SSL (pop3s). All data to and from
pop3d is encrypted using the Secure Sockets Layer.
-k Serve MIT's KPOP (Kerberized POP) protocol instead.
