There are five optional startup switches that can be used to configure the Internet Agent's IMAP4 service:
Enables IMAP4 client access to GroupWise mailboxes through the Internet Agent. See Enabling POP3/IMAP4 Services.
By default, the Internet Agent listens for IMAP4 connections on port 143. This switch allows you to change the IMAP4 listen port.
By default, the Internet Agent downloads a maximum of 5,000 items at a time. This switch allows you to specify, in thousands, the maximum number of items you want the Internet Agent to download. For example, specifying 10 indicates 10,000.
By default, the Internet Agent listens for secure (SSL) IMAP4 connections on port 993. This switch allows you to change the IMAP4 SSL listen port.
Disables, enables, or requires secure (SSL) connections between IMAP4 clients and the Internet Agent. See Securing Internet Agent Connections Via SSL.
Syntax: /IMAP4ssl-enabled|disabled|required
Option | Description |
---|---|
enabled |
The IMAP4 client determines whether an SSL connection or non-SSL connection is used. By default, the Internet Agent listens for SSL connections on port 993 and non-SSL connections on port 143. You can use the /imapsport and /imapport switches to change these ports. |
required |
The Internet Agent forces SSL connections on port 993 and port 143. Non-SSL connections are denied. You can use the /imapsport and /imapport switches to change these ports. |
disabled |
The Internet Agent listens for connections only on port 143, and the connections are not secure. You can use the /imapport switch to change this port. |
Specifies the maximum number of threads to be used for IMAP4 connections. The default number is 10. You are limited only by the memory resources of your server. See Enabling POP3/IMAP4 Services.
