NAME¶
dot-spop3d - user configuration data for The Solid POP3 Server.
DESCRIPTION¶
A user can specify their maildrop location, type and associated APOP secret in
the configuration file ~/.spop3d.
The file must be set to mode 0600 (-rw-------) or the server will not honour its
content.
Maildrop specification consists of three parts, separated by white space
characters:
- MailDrop path type
Path should be specified in the same format as the
-n option in
solid-pop3d(8).
Type should be
mailbox or
maildir.
APOP secret specification consists of the word
APOPSecret followed by an
encrypted secret. You shouldn't change this secret manually. Use
pop_auth(1) to do this.
Both maildrop and APOP secret specifications may optionally be followed by a
mailbox name. This allows, for instance, user
+boxA and
user
+boxB to be used as login names to access different mailboxes,
where
+ means value of
UserMailDropDelimiter server setting (see
spop3d.conf(5)).
The APOP secret associated with a particular maildrop should be followed with
the same mailbox name (or lack thereof). If no secret is specified for a
maildrop then the user's standard POP password should be used to authenticate
instead.
EXAMPLE¶
MailDrop Mail/default mailbox
APOPSecret 2345678901
MailDrop Mail/bugtraq mailbox bugtraq
APOPSecret 0123456789 bugtraq
MailDrop Mail/private mailbox private
APOPSecret 9876543210 private
To set the APOP secret for the above maildrops use the following
pop_auth(1) commands:
pop_auth
pop_auth bugtraq
pop_auth private
