NAME

       smmapd - Cyrus IMAP documentation

       Sendmail socket map daemon

SYNOPSIS

       smmapd [ -C config-file ]  [ -U uses ] [ -T timeout ] [ -D ]

DESCRIPTION

       smmapd  is  a  Sendmail  socket  map  daemon  which is used to verify that a Cyrus mailbox
       exists, that it is postable and it is under quota.  It accepts commands  on  its  standard
       input  and  responds  on  its standard output.  It MUST be invoked by master(8) with those
       descriptors attached to a remote client connection.

       smmapd reads its configuration options out of  the  imapd.conf(5)  file  unless  specified
       otherwise by -C.

OPTIONS

       -C config-file
              Use   the   specified  configuration  file  config-file  rather  than  the  default
              imapd.conf(5).

       -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.
