The Cyrus IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) server provides access to
|
|
personal mail and system-wide bulletin boards through the IMAP protocol.
|
|
The Cyrus IMAP server is a scaleable enterprise mail system designed for use
|
|
from small to large enterprise environments using standards-based
|
|
technologies.
|
|
|
|
A full Cyrus IMAP implementation allows a seamless mail and bulletin board
|
|
environment to be set up across multiple servers. It differs from other
|
|
IMAP server implementations in that it is run on "sealed" servers, where
|
|
users are not normally permitted to log in. The mailbox database is stored
|
|
in parts of the filesystem that are private to the Cyrus IMAP system. All
|
|
user access to mail is through software using the IMAP, POP3, or KPOP
|
|
protocols.
|
|
|
|
The private mailbox database design gives the server large advantages in
|
|
efficiency, scalability, and administratability. Multiple concurrent
|
|
read/write connections to the same mailbox are permitted. The server
|
|
supports access control lists on mailboxes and storage quotas on mailbox
|
|
hierarchies.
