DESCRIPTION
Dovecot is an open source IMAP and POP3 server for Linux/UNIX-like systems, written with
security primarily in mind. Dovecot is an excellent choice for both small and large
installations. It's fast, simple to set up, requires no special administration and it
uses very little memory.
OPTIONS
-a Dump all configuration settings to stdout and exit successfully. The same as dove-
conf -a.
-c config-file
Start dovecot with an alternative configuration.
-F Run dovecot in foreground, do not daemonize.
-n Dump non-default settings to stdout and exit successfully. The same as dove-
conf -n.
-p Prompt for the ssl key password for the configured ssl_key on startup.
--build-options
Show Dovecot's build options and exit successfully.
--help Print a usage message to stdout and exit successfully.
--hostdomain
Shows the current host.domain name of the system. If the domain lookup should fail
for some reason, only the hostname will be shown.
--version
Show Dovecot's version and exit successfully.
COMMANDS
reload Force dovecot to reload its configuration.
stop Shutdown dovecot and all its child processes.
When shutdown_clients is set to no, existing sessions will continue to use the old set-
tings, after a dovecot reload. Also all sessions will keep alive after a dovecot stop.
By default all active sessions will be shut down.
