cyradm - IMAP administrative client
/usr/bin/cyradm -file script
/usr/bin/cyradm [-user user] host [port]
Execute commands from script Log in to the server as user
Short form of -user user
The cyradm utility is a simple Tcl-based administrative
client for the IMAP server. If invoked with a script,
cyradm reads Tcl commandsfrom the file script and evaluates
them.
If invoked with host, cyradm runs in interactive mode,
connecting to host on port port, authenticating, and then
reading commands from the standard input and evaluating
them. The port argument defaults to the standard IMAP
port. The cyradm utility runs until the exit command is
invoked or until it reaches end-of-file on its standard
input. If the file is in the home directory of the user,
cyradm evaluates the file as a Tcl script just before
reading the first command from standard input, after connecting
and authenticating to server.
The following commands are available only in interactive
mode. In all commands, a mailbox or root of "." specifies
the same mailbox used previously in that connection. The
createmailbox (or cm) command creates a new mailbox named
mailbox. The optional partition argument specifies the
partition name on which to create the mailbox. The
deletemailbox (or dm) command deletes the named mailbox.
Since administrators do not have implicit delete rights on
all mailboxes, they may need to use setaclmailbox to give
themselves delete rights before trying to delete a mailbox.
The renamemailbox (or renm) command renames the
named mailbox to newmailbox. The optional partition argument
specifies the partition name on which to move the
mailbox. The listmailbox (or lm) command returns a list
of mailbox names matching the string pattern. If pattern
is omitted, it defaults to "*". The optional reference
argument specifies the reference name relative to which
pattern is then interpreted. Two wildcard characters are
defined in pattern. The "*" wildcard matches zero or more
characters. The "%" wildcard is like the "*" wildcard
except that it will not match the hierarchy separator,
".". For example, if "listmailbox user.foo.%" is specified,
and the mailboxes "user.foo.bar" and
"user.foo.bar.old" both exist, then "user.foo.bar" is
listed, but "user.foo.bar.old" is not.
In some cases, where "%" is used as the last character
of a pattern, non-mailbox names are listed in
parentheses. This indicates that the name is not
actually a mailbox, yet there are sub-mailboxes
underneath that name. For example, if "listmailbox
user.foo.%" is specified, and the mailbox
"user.foo.bar.old" exists, but "user.foo.bar" does
not exist, then "(user.foo.bar)" is listed. The
setaclmailbox (or sam) command modifies the access
control list of the mailbox mailbox. One or more
identifier-rights pairs may be given after mailbox,
each sets the ACL for identifier to rights. Rights
may be a set of access right letters: lookup (mailbox
is visible to LIST/LSUB/UNSEEN commands) read
(SELECT the mailbox, perform CHECK, FETCH, PARTIAL,
SEARCH, COPY from mailbox) keep seen/unseen information
across sessions (STORE \SEEN option) write
(STORE options other than \SEEN and \DELETED)
insert (perform APPEND, COPY into mailbox) post
(send mail to submission address for mailbox) create
(CREATE new sub-mailboxes in any implementation-defined
hierarchy) delete (STORE \DELETED
option, perform EXPUNGE) administer (perform
SETACL) or one of the following words:
none ""
read lrs
post lrsp
append lrsip
write lrswipcd
all lrswipcda
The deleteaclmailbox (or dam) command modifies the
access control list of mailbox. One or more identifiers
may be specified, each identifier has its
access control entry removed. The listaclmailbox
(or lam) command returns a string containing the
access control list of the mailbox mailbox. The
setquota (or sq) command sets the limit on the
quota root root to quota. The quota is one of the
following: A single numeric value, limiting the use
of storage to that value A list of one or more
resource-value pairs, limiting the use of each
given resource to the given numeric value. The IMAP
server does not support resources other than storage.
none, specifying no limits whatsoever The
listquota (or lq) command returns a string listing
the quotas on the quota root root. The listquotaroot
(or lqr or lqm) command returns a string listing
the quota roots and quotas on the mailbox mailbox.
Same as the Tcl command exit. Close the connection
and exit cyradm.
COMMANDS FOR TCL SCRIPTS [Toc] [Back] The cyradm utility adds one command to the standard Tcl
command set: The cyradm connect command opens a connection
to host and creates a new Tcl command connection that may
be used to invoke various operations on the connection.
The host defaults to connection and port defaults to the
standard IMAP port. The cyradm connect command returns its
connection argument. Returns the name of the host that
connection is connected to. Authenticates the connection.
Switches are: Log in to the server as user. Attempt a
plain text password login if strong authentication fails.
The argument is a Tcl script which is executed to obtain
the login information; the script must return a list with
two elements, the username and the password. Before executing
the script, the authenticate command will replace
%-sequences as follows: Replaced with a single % Replaced
with the hostname of the server Replaced with the value of
the -user switch, or the empty string if the -user switch
was not given Creates a mailbox on connection. Arguments
are the same as for the interactive version of the command.
Delete a mailbox on connection. Arguments are the
same as for the interactive version of the command.
Renames a mailbox on connection. Arguments are the same
as for the interactive version of the command. Returns a
list describing mailboxes on connection matching pattern.
The optional reference argument specifies the reference
name relative to which pattern is then interpreted.
The -subscribed switch limits the returned mailboxes
to those to which the user has subscribed.
The returned value contains a list with one entry
for each matching mailbox. Each entry is a list
containing three elements, the name, a list of
mailbox attributes, and the hierarchy delimiter.
If there is no hierarchy delimiter, the third element
is the empty string. Modifies an access control
list on connection. Arguments are the same as
for the interactive version of the command. Modifies
an access control list on connection. Arguments
are the same as for the interactive version
of the command. Returns a list containing the
access control list of the mailbox mailbox on connection.
The returned list contains alternating
identifier right pairs. Sets the limit on the
quota root root on connection. Zero or more
resource limit pairs may be specified, specifying
the limit for each resource. Returns a list containing
the quotas of the quota root root on connection.
The returned list contains zero or more
resource usage limit triplets. Returns a list containing
the quota roots and quotas on the mailbox
mailbox on connection. The returned list contains
zero or more sublists; each sublist contains the
name of a quota root followed by zero or more
resource usage limit triplets.
