IMAP Agent

The IMAP Agent enables IMAP4 clients to download mail from the messaging system.

In addition to the basic NetMail® memory requirements, the IMAP Agent requires approximately 300 KB per expected simultaneous connection to your NetMail system.

In order for users to access their mailboxes, your messaging system must include at least one POP, IMAP, or Modular Web Agent.

 

IMAP Agent Configuration

The IMAP Agent object's only configurable property is Status. By default, the IMAP Agent is enabled.

Select Disabled to prevent the messaging server from launching the IMAP Agent at startup. However, to immediately disable the agent, you must manually unload the imapd executable or restart the messaging server. For more information on manually unloading NetMail Agents or restarting the messaging server, see the Novell® NetMail Administration Guide at http://www.novell.com/documentation.

After the IMAP Agent is disabled, the messaging server does not launch the imapd executable again until you select Enabled and restart the messaging server.
