NAME

       spop3d.conf - configuration data for The Solid POP3 Server.

DESCRIPTION

       A configuration file consists of zero or more blocks. There are two kinds of these blocks:
       Global and VirtualHost.  Global block begins with <Global> and ends with  </Global>  line.
       VirtualHost block begins with one of:

              <VirtualHost xx.xx.xx.xx>

              <VirtualHost host.name.com>

              <VirtualHost xx.xx.xx.xx host.name.com>

       lines,  where  xx.xx.xx.xx  is  an  IPv4  (or IPv6) address and host.name.com is a virtual
       domain name (read VIRTUALS file).  VirtualHost block ends with </VirtualHost>  line.  Each
       such block consists of zero or more options. Each option is specified in separate line and
       has 2 parts: option name and option argument, separated by a white space character (one or
       more). There are 4 types of options:

              boolean
                     its argument can be "yes" (or "true") and "no" (or "false")

              string its argument is string. String should be quoted (read the section BUGS).

              period its  argument  is  number  which can be followed by one of these suffixes: s
                     (for seconds), m (for minutes), h (for hours), d (for days), w (for  weeks).
                     This argument specifies some period of time or some number.

              expire exactly the same as period, but its argument can also be never.

       Every  text  between  /* and */ is treated as a comment and is ignored, unless it's inside
       quoted string.

       Options from all Global and some VirtualHost (when their IPv4 (or IPv6) address  is  equal
       to  socket  address  or  their  block  virtual domain name is equal to virtual domain name
       specified by user) blocks are used. Options from  left  VirtualHost  blocks  are  ignored.
       Configuration file is parsed two times, if user specify virtual domain name (read VIRTUALS
       file).

       Following options are recognized:

              AllowRootLogin boolean
                     Allow root login. It's disabled by default and shouldn't be changed.
                     Debian Note: This option is not available in the Debian package.

              UserOverride boolean
                     Allow users specify their maildrops (path and type) and APOP secrets.   It's
                     enabled by default.

              UserMailDropDelimiter string
                     Specify  character  used  to separate different maildrops for user.  If set,
                     user can access different maildrops, as defined  in  their  ~/.spop3d  file,
                     logging as "user_nameUserMailDropDelimitermaildrop_name" (e.g. user+private,
                     if the UserMailDropDelimiter is set to +) Default is empty (disables support
                     for multiple mailboxes per user).

              AllowAPOP boolean
                     Users can authenticate themselves with APOP scheme. It's enabled by default.

              MailDropName string
                     Specify  path to maildrop. The format is the same as for -n option in solid-
                     pop3d (8). Default value is /var/mail/%s

              MailDropType string
                     Specify type of maildrop.  The  allowed  values  are  mailbox  and  maildir.
                     Default  value  is mailbox (or maildir if support for mailbox isn't compiled
                     in server).

              APOPServerName string
                     Specify the server name which is used for APOP authentication. Default value
                     is a name obtained from gethostname() call.

              AutoLogoutTime period
                     Specify  the  autologout  time.  The  server  quit  when  client is idle for
                     specified period. Default value is 2 minutes.

              ChangeGID boolean
                     If enabled server changes his GID to GID of logged  user.  It's  enabled  by
                     default.

              WrongCommandsLimit period
                     Specify  the  limit  of  wrong  commands. The server quit when this limit is
                     exceeded. Limit is ignored when 0 is specified. Default value is 5.

              ReadExpire expire
                     Expire read (in this instance  of  daemon)  messages  that  are  older  than
                     expire. Default value is never.

              UnreadExpire expire
                     Expire  unread  (in  this  instance  of daemon) messages that are older than
                     expire. Default value is never.

              DoMapping boolean
                     If enabled mapping of user names (read VIRTUALS file) is allowed.  Option is
                     disabled by default.

              UserMapFile string
                     Specify  path  to user names mapping file (read VIRTUALS file).  There is no
                     default value.

              UserMapPrefix string
                     Specify a set of characters which should be prefixed to the username  before
                     it is looked up in the user mapping file.
                     For example, given a username of "bar", and a UserMapPrefix of "foo-", there
                     should be an entry in the user mapping file for "foo-bar".
                     This option has no effect when DoMapping is disabled, and is a blank  string
                     by default.

              AllowNonIP boolean
                     If  enabled  user is allowed to specify virtual domain name in when logging.
                     Read VIRTUALS file for details. Option is enabled by default.

              UserBullFile string
                     Specify path to user bulletin file (read the section BULLETINS  in  README).
                     The  format  is the same as for -n option in solid-pop3d (8).  Default value
                     is .spop3d-bull.

              BulletinDirectory string
                     Specify path  to  bulletin  directory.   Default  value  is  /var/lib/solid-
                     pop3d/bulletins.

              LogPriority string
                     Set  logging  facility  and priority. Default value is local0.notice.  Known
                     facilities:  daemon,  local0,  local1,  ...,  local7,  mail,  user.    Known
                     priorities: emerg, alert, crit, err, warning, notice, info, debug.  facility
                     or facility.priority combination are recognized.

              AddBulletins boolean
                     Server checks for new bulletins in BulletinDirectory if enabled.  Option  is
                     enabled by default.

              RequiredMapping boolean
                     If  DoMapping and RequiredMapping are enabled user _MUST_ have entry in user
                     mapping file. If DoMapping is enabled and RequiredMapping is  disabled  user
                     needn't  have  entry  in  user  mapping file (no mapping is performed then).
                     Option has no effect when  DoMapping  is  disabled.  Option  is  enabled  by
                     default.

              AuthMappedUser boolean
                     Controls  whether  authentication  is performed on the username given by the
                     user, or the username looked up in the user mapping file.
                     The option is enabled by default, meaning that the  user  from  the  mapping
                     file is used. The option has no effect when DoMapping is disabled.

              LogStatistics boolean
                     If  enabled  qpopper-like  statistics are logged. At the end of each session
                     username, number of deleted messages, size (in bytes) of  deleted  messages,
                     number  of  messages  left  on  server,  size (in bytes) of messages left on
                     server are logged. Option is enabled by default.

              CreateMailDrop boolean
                     If enabled maildrop (mailbox or maildir) will be created,  when  it  doesn't
                     exist. Option is disabled by default.

              AllowUser boolean
                     Allow USER/PASS authentication. This option is enabled by default.  It's the
                     standard method of user  authentication  and  you  probably  don't  need  to
                     disable  it.   You  must  have  at  least  one authentication method enabled
                     (AllowUser or AllowAPOP).

WARNINGS

       spop3d.conf should be readable by "spop3d" user!!! The  server  exits  when  syntax  error
       occurs in a configuration file. If a configuration file doesn't exist (stat() failed), the
       server logs this fact only when in debugging mode.

FILES

       /etc/spop3d.conf
              Global configuration file.
