Configuration Directives for the Mithril POP Proxy
The POP Proxy configuration file is typically
/etc/mithril/popproxy.conf. It is broken into the following sections:
Proxy
tls
This key indicates whether or not the STLS POP capability
should be advertised and supported. A value of zero indicates
that it should not, a non-zero value indicates that it should.
Default: 0
TLS cert
This key specifies the file in which the certificate for
TLS negotiation can be found. Default: none
TLS key
This key specifies the file in which the private key for TLS
negotiation can be found. The key MUST NOT be encrypted.
If no key file is specified, the cert file will be used.
Default: none
allow plain text login
This key indicates that the POP server should allow login
by the USER command even when no encryption layer is in effect.
Server
address
The address key indicates an INET address which should be used
as the "backend" of the proxy. The address may contain an
optional port, such as "localhost:10110"; if no port is given,
the standard POP port (110) is assumed.
path
The path key indicates a file which should be executed
as the "backend" of the proxy. The executed file should
expect to communicate with the proxy using stdin/stdout.
Note: if both path and address are defined, the path key
will be used.
Fix-up
Keys in this section are described in the fix-up section of this manual.
