mailusradm - Administer User Mail SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/sysman mailusradm [-ui cui [cuioptions] | gui [x resources]] OPTIONS
Specifies the user interface to be invoked. The choices are: Invokes the command line interface. Invokes the graphical user interface. Specific command line options that will be used to interact. Specifies the standard X11 resource options. For more information, see the X(1X) reference page DESCRIPTION
The Mail User Administration application is used by the system administrator to administer the mail system. Specifically, the mail adminis- trator can change the mail service type of a single user, a group of users, or all the users on a local system. The mail administrator can also delete defunct mail user accounts. The mail service types are: Local Mail Post Office Protocol (POP), which is designed to allow single user computers to retrieve electronic mail from a POP server. The POP server might be a computer with a permanent Internet connection where its clients might connect to it only occasionally. Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP), which is a protocol that allows a client to access and manipulate electronic mail messages on a server. IMAP allows the manipulation of remote message folders known as mailboxes. IMAP has operations for creating, delet- ing, and renaming mailboxes; for checking for new messages; for permanently removing messages; for searching; and for selective fetching of message attributes, text, and other portions. It does not specify a means of posting mail; a mail transfer protocol, such as SMTP, handles this function. Furthermore, the mail administrator can specify the use of mail passwords on users under POP and IMAP. mailusradm has two user interface options: Graphical user interface (GUI) Command line interface (CUI) Running the Graphical User Interface Option: The mailusradm application can be invoked from: The CDE Application Manager Application Group: System_Admin Desktop_Apps Subgroup: Configuration To start mailusradm from the command line, enter: /usr/sbin/sysman mailusradm -gui Running the Command Line Interface Option: To start the mailusradm command line interface, enter the following command from the terminal: /usr/sbin/sysman mailusradm -ui cui [cuiop- tions] RESTRICTIONS

pop3d(8) System Manager's Manual pop3d(8) NAME
pop3d - POP3 server SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/pop3d [-d] [-s] [-t trace-file] [-T timeout] OPTIONS
Sets the socket to debugging and turns on debugging. All debugging information is saved using syslogd. Turns on statistics logging using syslogd(8). At the end of each pop3d session, the following information is logged: username, number of messages deleted, number of bytes deleted, number of message left on server, number of bytes left on server. Turns on debugging and saves the trace information in trace-file using the fprintf(3) command. When the server is waiting for a command to arrive from the client, it times out after the speci- fied number of seconds and terminates the session. This avoids having pop3d processes hang forever waiting for command input from clients which have terminated abnormally. A small value is acceptable for small to medium networks where the network delay is within a few seconds. In this case 15-30 seconds is not unreasonable. Networks with large delays in sending packets (for example, SLIP links) may require a larger value. In this case 300 seconds (5 minutes) is not unreasonable. DESCRIPTION
The pop3d server is an implementation of the Post Office Protocol Version 3 from Qualcomm, Incorporated. It provides remote users with the ability to manage electronic mail on a UNIX system. Authentication The operating system supports the following types of authentication for the pop3d server: UNIX authentication using the /etc/passwd file, Authenticated POP (APOP), and enhanced security using C2. The default is UNIX authentication. To enable APOP authentication for a user, you must add the user to the mailauth database. See mailauth(8) and the Network Administration guide for more information. To use C2 secure authentication, you must configure your system to use C2 security. See secconfig(8) and the Security guide for more infor- mation. Logging The pop3d server uses the syslog daemon to keep a record of its activities. Messages are logged in the /var/adm/syslog.dated/date/mail.log file. Debugging The pop3d program will log debugging information when the -d parameter is specified after its invocation in the inetd.conf file. Care should be exercised in using this option since it generates considerable output in the mail.log file. Alternatively, the -t file-name option will place debugging information into file file-name using fprintf instead of syslog. You can confirm that the POP server is running by opening a telnet session to port 110. For example: % telnet myhost 110 Connected to myhost.berkeley.edu. Escape character is '^]'. +OK UCB Pop server (version 1.6) at myhost starting. quit +OK Pop server at myhost.berke- ley.edu signing off. Connection closed by foreign host. Extensions The server implements two extended commands: XTND XMIT Sends a mail message using /usr/sbin/sendmail. XTND XLIST header [num] Extracts and returns the specified header line for the specified message number. If the num parameter is missing, the command returns the header line for all the messages that are not currently marked for deletion. RESTRICTIONS
Note that this implementation of Qualcomm's POP3 server does not support Server Mode, Kerberos authentication, or the bulletin feature. FILES
