NAME
pop3d - POP3 server process
SYNOPSIS
pop3d [ -C config-file ] [ -U uses ] [ -T timeout ] [ -D ]
[ -s ] [ -k ] [ -p ssf ]
DESCRIPTION
Pop3d is a POP3 server. It accepts commands on its standard 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 specified 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 con-
nection 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.
-p ssf Tell pop3d that an external layer exists. An SSF (security
strength factor) of 1 means an integrity protection layer
exists. Any higher SSF implies some form of privacy protection.
