The Cyrus IMAP server differs from other IMAP server implementations in
|
|
|
|
that it is generally intended to be run on sealed servers, where normal
|
|
|
|
users are not 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 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.
