<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>

<para>
The
<ulink url="couriertcpd.html"><citerefentry><refentrytitle>couriertcpd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry></ulink> manual page
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.
