NAME

notifyd - Cyrus notification server

SYNOPSIS

notifyd [ -C config-file ] [ -U uses ] [ -T timeout ]
[ -D ]

DESCRIPTION

Notifyd is a daemon started from master(8) that handles notification requests on behalf of lmtpd(8). Notifyd accepts the request and performs the notification using the method specified in the request.

Note that for notifyd to run properly you must set proto=udp in its cyrus.conf services entry. prefork=1 is also recommended.

Notifyd reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C. The noti- fysocket option is used to specify the Unix domain socket to listen on for notifications.

OPTIONS

-C config-file -U uses		Read configuration options from config-file. The maximum number of times that the process should be used for new connections before shutting down. The default is 250.
-T timeout		The number of seconds that the process will wait for a new connection before shutting down. Note that a value of 0 (zero) will disable the timeout. The default is 60.
-D		Run external debugger specified in debug_command.

NOTIFICATION METHODS

null log mailto		Ignore the notification request. Log the notification to syslog (for testing). Email the notification. This method can ONLY be used in a Sieve 'notify' action as it requires a mailto: URL to be specified as an :option.
zephyr		Send the notification as a zephyrgram. If used in a Sieve 'notify' action, additional recipi- ents can be specified as :options.

FILES
