NAME

       notifyd - Cyrus notification server

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

       Notifyd  is  a daemon started from cyrmaster(8) that handles notification requests on behalf of lmtpd(8).
       Notifyd accepts the request and performs the notification using the method specified in the request.

       Note that for notifyd to run properly you must set proto=udp in its cyrus.conf services entry.  prefork=1
       is also recommended.

       Notifyd  reads  its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C.
       The notifysocket option is used to specify the Unix domain socket to listen on for notifications.

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 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.

NOTIFICATION METHODS

       null   Ignore the notification request.

       log    Log the notification to syslog (for testing).

              mailto: URL to be specified as an :option.

              can be specified as :options.

       external

              notify_external option in the configuration file.
