NOTIFYD(8) NOTIFYD(8)
NAME
notifyd - Cyrus notification server
SYNOPSIS
notifyd [ -C config-file ] [ -U uses ] [ -T timeout ]
[ -D ]
DESCRIPTION
Notifyd is a daemon started from master(8) that handles notification
requests on behalf of lmtpd(8). Notifyd accepts the request and per-
forms the notification using the method specified in the request.
Note that for notifyd to run properly you must set proto=udp in its
cyrus.conf services entry. prefork=1 is also recommended.
Notifyd reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file
unless specified otherwise by -C. The notifysocket option is used to
specify the Unix domain socket to listen on for notifications.
OPTIONS
-C config-file
Read configuration options from config-file.
-U uses
The maximum number of times that the process should be used for
new connections before shutting down. The default is 250.
-T timeout
The number of seconds that the process will wait for a new con-
nection before shutting down. Note that a value of 0 (zero)
will disable the timeout. The default is 60.
-D Run external debugger specified in debug_command.
NOTIFICATION METHODS
null Ignore the notification request.
log Log the notification to syslog (for testing).
mailto Email the notification. This method can ONLY be used in a Sieve
'notify' action as it requires a mailto: URL to be specified as
an :option.

'notify' action, additional recipients can be specified as
:options.
