zarafa-gateway(1) - Linux man page
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/zarafa. 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
To start the gateway:
zarafa-gateway
The gateway process will keep running. You may also use the init.d scripts:
/etc/init.d/zarafa-gateway [start| stop| restart]
