NOTIFYD(8)NOTIFYD(8)NAMEnotifyd - Cyrus notification server
SYNOPSISnotifyd [ -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
notifysocket option is used to specify the Unix domain
socket to listen on for notifications.
OPTIONS-C config-file
Read configuration options from config-file.
-U uses
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
