ZARAFA-GATEWAY(8)

NAME
zarafa-gateway - Start the Zarafa IMAP/POP3 Gateway.

SYNOPSIS

zarafa-gateway [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION

The gateway enables other e-mail clients to connect through POP3 or IMAP to the Zarafa server to read their e-mail. With IMAP, it is also possible to view the contents of other folders and subfolders. The gateway can be configured to listen for POP3, POP3S, IMAP and/or IMAPS.

The default settings of the gateway program are defined in zarafa-gateway.cfg(5).

OPTIONS

Various options are possible. None of these options are required.

--config, -c gateway.cfg
    Specify the location of the gateway.cfg file. If the gateway.cfg file is not specified, the gateway will continue using its default settings.

    Default: /etc/zarafa/gateway.cfg

--host, -h path
    Connect to the Zarafa server through path, e.g. file:///path/to/socket. Default: file:///var/run/zarafad/server.sock. Overrides the config file setting.

--foreground, -F
    Run in the foreground. Normally the gateway will daemonize and run in the background.

SIGNALS

The following signals can be sent to the zarafa-gateway process:

HUP
    When the HUP signal is received, some options from the configuration file are reloaded. The reloadable options are listed in the zarafa-gateway.cfg(5) manual page.

    Also, when using log_method = file, the logfile will be closed and a new logfile will be opened. You can use this signal in your logrotate system.

TERM
    To gracefully let the service exit, the normal TERM signal is used.

USAGE
