14 .TH IPOPD 8 "August 30, 2006" | |
15 .UC 5 | |
16 .SH NAME | |
17 IPOPd \- Post Office Protocol server | |
18 .SH SYNOPSIS | |
19 .B /usr/etc/ipop2d | |
20 .PP | |
21 .B /usr/etc/ipop3d | |
22 .SH DESCRIPTION | |
23 .I ipop2d | |
24 and | |
25 .I ipop3d | |
26 are servers which support the | |
27 .B POP2 | |
28 and | |
29 .B POP3 | |
30 remote mail access protocols respectively. | |
31 .I ipop2d | |
32 and | |
33 .I ipop3d | |
34 can also be used by | |
35 .B POP2 | |
36 and | |
37 .B POP3 | |
38 clients respecitively to access mailboxes on | |
39 .B IMAP | |
40 servers by specifying a login user name in the form <host>:<user> | |
41 e.g., | |
42 .B SERVER.WASHINGTON.EDU:SMITH. | |
43 .PP | |
44 These daemons contain CRAM-MD5 and APOP support. See the md5.txt | |
45 documentation file for additional information. | |
46 .PP | |
47 .I ipop2d | |
48 and | |
49 .I ipop3d | |
50 are invoked by the internet server (see | |
51 .IR inetd (8)), | |
52 normally for requests to connect to the | |
53 .B POP | |
54 port as indicated by the | |
55 .I /etc/services | |
56 file (see | |
57 .IR services (5)). | |
58 .SH "SEE ALSO" | |
59 imapd(8) | |
60 .SH BUGS | |
61 The | |
62 .B POP2 | |
63 and | |
64 .B POP3 | |
65 protocols are intrinsically less flexible than | |
66 .B IMAP | |
67 and do not maintain `read' vs `unread' state on the server. As a result, | |
68 most | |
69 .B POP | |
70 based software transfers all the mail from the server to the client and | |
71 deletes it from the server. This necessarily locks the user into using only | |
72 a single client. | |
73 .PP | |
74 .B POP3 | |
75 does not allow you to specify an alternate folder from the user's default. |
