LMTP server process
lmtpd [ -C config-file ] [ -U uses ] [ -T timeout ] [ -D ] [ -a ]
lmtpd is an LMTP server used to deliver mail to the IMAP mailstore. It accepts commands on its standard input and responds on its standard output. It MUST be invoked by master(8) with those descriptors attached to a remote client connection.
lmtpd reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C.
lmtpd is commonly included in the SERVICES section of cyrus.conf(5) like so:
SERVICES {
imap cmd="imapd -U 30" listen="imap" prefork=0
imaps cmd="imapd -s -U 30" listen="imaps" prefork=0 maxchild=100
lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp" prefork=0 maxchild=20
sieve cmd="timsieved" listen="sieve" prefork=0
notify cmd="notifyd" listen="/var/run/cyrus/socket/notify" proto="udp" prefork=1
httpd cmd="httpd" listen=8080 prefork=1 maxchild=20 }
