POP3Lite(8)

NAME
POP3Lite - 3lite POP3 Daemon

SYNTAX
pop3lite [Options]

DESCRIPTION
POP3Lite is a flexible, RFC 1939 compliant Post Office Protocol 3 daemon. It implements everything mentioned in the RFC (either natively, or via modules), and some other things that are not strictly POP3 related capabilities (such as modules, PAM support, SQL configuration, etc). It was written because I found no other POP3 daemon, that would suit my needs. The ones I found were either buggy or not flexible enough. I could try to hack my enhancements in one of them, but writing a brand new one seemed to be an easier task. As far as I know, POP3Lite is the only daemon that is designed to be extensible.

OPTIONS

--config, -c [file]
    Loads configuration from the specified file, instead of the default one.

--define, -D [field]=[value]
    Defines a configuration field, with the same syntax as in the configuration file.

--pidfile, -p [file]
