NAME

       lmtpd - LMTP server process

SYNOPSIS

       lmtpd [ -C config-file ] [ -U uses ] [ -T timeout ] [ -D ]
             [ -a ]

DESCRIPTION

       Lmtpd  is an LMTP server used to deliver mail to the IMAP mailstore.  It accepts commands on its standard
       input and responds on its standard output.  It MUST be invoked by  cyrmaster(8)  with  those  descriptors
       attached to a remote client connection.

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

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.

       -a     Preauthorize  connections  initiated  on an internet socket, instead of requiring LMTP AUTH.  This
              should only be used for connections coming from trusted hosts.
