NAME

8       pop3d - POP3 server process
9

SYNOPSIS

11       pop3d [ -C config-file ] [ -U uses ] [ -T timeout ] [ -D ]
12             [ -s ] [ -k ] [ -p ssf ]

DESCRIPTION

15       Pop3d  is a POP3 server.  It accepts commands on its standard input and
16       responds on its standard output.  It MUST  invoked  by  master(8)  with
17       those descriptors attached to a remote client connection.
18
19       Pop3d  reads  its  configuration  options out of the imapd.conf(5) file
20       unless specified otherwise by -C.
21
22       If the directory log/user exists under the directory specified  in  the
23       configdirectory  configuration  option, then pop3d will create protocol
24       telemetry logs for sessions authenticating as user.  The telemetry logs
25       will  be  stored in the log/user directory with a filename of the pop3d
26       process-id.
27

OPTIONS

29       -C config-file
30              Read configuration options from config-file.
31
32       -U uses
33              The maximum number of times that the process should be used  for
34              new connections before shutting down.  The default is 250.
35
36       -T timeout
37              The  number of seconds that the process will wait for a new con‐
38              nection before shutting down.  Note that a  value  of  0  (zero)
39              will disable the timeout.  The default is 60.
40
41       -D     Run external debugger specified in debug_command.
42
43       -s     Serve  POP3  over  SSL  (pop3s).   All data to and from pop3d is
44              encrypted using the Secure Sockets Layer.
45
46       -k     Serve MIT's KPOP (Kerberized POP) protocol instead.
47
48       -p ssf Tell pop3d that an external  layer  exists.   An  SSF  (security
49              strength  factor)  of  1  means  an  integrity  protection layer
50              exists.  Any higher SSF implies some form of privacy protection.
