The following optional startup switches that can be used to configure the GWIA’s POP3 service:
Suppresses the GroupWise version and copyright date information that the GWIA typically responds with when contacted by a POP client.
Syntax: --nopopversion
Enables POP3 client access to GroupWise mailboxes through the GWIA. See Enabling POP3/IMAP4 Services.
Syntax: --pop3
Configures the GWIA to log POP email clients in through the POA so that the POA’s intruder detection can take effect, if intruder has been configured in the GroupWise Administration Console (Post Office object > Client Settings > Intruder Detection).
Syntax: --popintruderdetect
By default, the GWIA listens for POP3 connections on port 110. This switch enables you to change the POP3 listen port.
Syntax: --popport port_number
Example: --popport 111
By default, the GWIA listens for secure (SSL) POP3 connections on port 995. This switch enables you to change the POP3 SSL listen port.
Syntax: --popsport port_number
Example: --popsport 996
Disables, enables, or requires secure (SSL) connections between POP3 clients and the GWIA. See Securing Internet Access with TLS Connections to the GWIA.
Syntax: --popssl enabled|disabled|required
Example: --popssl required
|
Option |
Description |
|---|---|
|
enabled |
The POP3 client determines whether an SSL connection or non-SSL connection is used. By default, the GWIA listens for SSL connections on port 995 and non-SSL connections on port 110. You can use the ‑‑popsport and ‑‑popport switches to change these ports. |
|
required |
The GWIA forces SSL connections on port 995 and port 110. Non-SSL connections are denied. You can use the ‑‑popsport and ‑‑popport switches to change these ports. |
|
disabled |
The GWIA listens for connections only on port 110, and the connections are not secure. You can use the ‑‑popport switch to change this port. |
Specifies the maximum number of threads to be used for POP3 connections. The default number is 10. You are limited only by the memory resources of your server. See Enabling POP3/IMAP4 Services.
Syntax: --pt number_of_threads
Example: --pt 15
Specify the maximum number of threads you want the GWIA to use for secure POP3 connections. You are limited only by the memory resources of your server. See Enabling POP3/IMAP4 Services.
Syntax: --sslpt number_of_threads
Example: --sslpt 15
