NAME
       bincimapd - IMAP4rev1 server

SYNOPSIS
       bincimap-up [ options... ] -- <authenticator> bincimapd

DESCRIPTION
       Binc  IMAP is a simple xinetd / tcpserver invoked IMAP4rev1 server with
       support for Maildir.  It is very easy to install and use.

       To configure Binc IMAP, use either command line	arguments,  configura‐
       tion file entries, or a combination of both.

       Note that command line arguments always override config file options.

OPTIONS
       Command line arguments are optional. The default behavior is to inherit
       options from bincimap-up through the environment. Passing arguments  to
       bincimapd will override settings inherited from bincimap-up.

       bincimapd  takes one optional unqualified argument in addition to regu‐
       lar command line options: the Mailbox path.  Appending  a  path	as  an
       option  to bincimapd will override any mailbox path set by command line
       options or inherited from bincimap-up.

       For a complete listing of options for bincimapd,	 see  the  bincimap-up
       man page.

       Local  options are read through the file .bincimap, located at the cur‐
       rent working directory that bincimapd is invoked in, before  it	enters
       the depository path.

FILES
       All  Binc IMAP's configuration files use the same Binc::Storage format.
       It's basically a sequence of named sections enclosed in {braces},  each
       containing  a  set of comma separated key=value pairs. The keys must be
       alphanumeric, and the values can contain any character if it's quoted.

       $HOME/.bincimap
	      Local configurations file. This file has a similar structure  to
	      the global bincimap.conf file, and it can be set by each user to
	      override both command line arguments and the  global  configura‐
	      tion. It only works for a few selected options, though.

       $HOME/<maildepot>/.../bincimap-uidvalidity
	      This  file contains a version number, and the UIDNEXT and UIDVA‐
	      LIDITY values for the given mailbox.

       $HOME/<maildepot>/.../bincimap-cache
	      This file contains a version number, and it stores the UID  val‐
	      ues for each message, along with (optionally) some cached infor‐
	      mation.

ENVIRONMENT
       bincimapd reads its configuration from the environment,	as  passed  by
       bincimap-up.  In	 addition, bincimapd reads the variable BINCIMAP_LOGIN
       which contains a message from bincimap-up with the tag and command used
       to  authenticate,  separated  by	 a  +.	If the tag and command used to
       authenticate were "1  LOGIN",  then  BINCIMAP_LOGIN  would  be  set  to
       "LOGIN+1".

       Note that it is essential that the authenticator invoked by bincimap-up
       does not clear the environment.
