This setting allows folders to be shared between users. See the domain setting 'imap_public'. Requires surgemail 3.9d or later! For this to work you will need an imap client that supports ACL's to create and map shared folders (.e.g. thunderbird)

Syntax: g_imap_acl bool

g_imap_auto_create - Create folders matching this list in response to 'select' commands

Some imap clients assume certain folders exist, this setting can be used to let surgemail auto create such folders when the imap client requests some action involving the folder

Syntax: g_imap_auto_create string

g_imap_auto_subscribe - Auto subscribe folders for users

This setting has no further documentation currently available

Syntax: g_imap_auto_subscribe bool

g_imap_blacklist - Test if imap users are in rbl's and email admin

This lets you find any of your users who's ip address has been blacklisted, at most it will email once a day, any additional entries are logged in mail.err log file (search for 'blacklist')

Syntax: g_imap_blacklist bool

g_imap_capa - Where to get the CAPABILITY value from

When you have suffix based domains and you're using SurgeWall the CAPABILITY request comes before the domain of the user is known. As such SurgeMail cannot determine whether to send the real servers CAPABILITY or it's own. This setting will choose the default behaviour, valid values are: Local, . By default SurgeMail defaults to the behaviour of the primary domain, if it's surgewall then it obtains the real server capability. "Local" defaults to SurgeMails own capability, and defaults to the real server capability.

Syntax: g_imap_capa string

g_imap_capa_strip - Capability values to hide

In some situations you might not want to advertise server capabilities, for example SURGEMAIL and XFLDDATA when they cause problems with SurgeWall operations. Or perhaps the IDLE capability. Specifying the capability strings to hide here will cause SurgeMail to stop advertising those capabilies.

Syntax: g_imap_capa_strip string

g_imap_cram_enable - Enable CRAM-MD5 authentication (requires nwauth 4.0h or greater)

Please note that CRAM-MD5 does have security implications, specifically it means that the local users password must be stored in a semi reversable state in the authent database. Also you must be using the new version of the NWAuth module.

Syntax: g_imap_folder name=string type=string

g_imap_friends - Make the friends_pending folder visible in imap

Setting to map the friends_pending folder into an imap folder. There is no corresponding setting for the 'held' folder as we believe people should always use the friends mechanism as it is a superset of the held folder in functionality

This setting helps limit impact when a user has a large folder, it will fail to load a folder larger than this and report errors in the log, it does not prevent the folder from having messages added to it, and it does not inform the user that the problem has occurred, this setting is primarily to limit impact of a crazy user :-), see also G_MAILDIR_MAX

Syntax: g_imap_max_messages int

Prevents redownloading messages if file indicating user is using imap is lost. Generally this setting is not needed and should not be used. Turning it on/off will result in users getting duplicate messagese if they are using POP and have leave on server ticked

Syntax: g_imap_pop_burst bool

g_imap_port - IMAP Port (default 143)

Specifies the PORT to listen for IMAP connections on. IMAP is an alternative to POP protocol where the messages and folders all exist on the server.
