+ <para>
+ <command>makeimapaccess</command> rebuilds the contents of the
+ <filename>@sysconfdir@/imapaccess.dat</filename> database from the
+ contents of the
+ files in the <filename>@sysconfdir@/imapaccess</filename> directory.
+ When the
+ <command>imapd</command> script starts <command>couriertcpd</command>,
+ the script specifies the
+ <filename>@sysconfdir@/imapaccess.dat</filename> file to control
+ access to
+ the <application>Courier</application> mail server's
+ IMAP daemon. The <command>makeimapaccess</command> script
+ must be
+ run before any changes in the <filename>@sysconfdir@/imapaccess</filename>
+ directory take effect.</para>

+ The

+ describes the generic format of the access file.
+ The access file specifies
+ what should be done with connections from defined IP address ranges.
+ The basic choices are to accept or reject the connection.
+ Also, the generic format of the access file allows arbitrary environment
+ variables to be set based on the connection's remote IP address,
+ however the IMAP server does not use any special environment variables
+ on its own.
