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
FILES
~/.spop3d
User configuration file.
