The general idea is that the client should never know that it is -not talking to the real IMAP server, but ImapProxy caches server connections. -.PP -ImapProxy was written to compensate for webmail clients that are unable to -maintain persistent connections to an IMAP server. Most webmail clients -need to log in to an IMAP server for nearly every single transaction; This -behaviour can cause tragic performance problems on the IMAP server. -ImapProxy tries to deal with this problem by leaving server connections -open for a short time after a webmail client logs out. When the webmail -client connects again, ImapProxy will determine if there is a cached -connection available and reuse it if possible. -.BR -.SH FILES -By default, UP-ImapProxy reads /etc/imapproxy.conf on startup. -This can be changed by using the -.I -f -option -.PP -Unless foreground_mode has been enabled, UP-ImapProxy will write its PID to to -a PID-file. It defaults to /var/run/imapproxy.pid, but can be overridden with -the -.I -p -option -.SH SEE ALSO -.BR pimpstat (8), -.br -.SH AUTHOR -This manual page was written by Jose Luis Tallon -.nh -<jltallon@adv-solutions.net>, -for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others). - - |
