PMDF popstore & MessageStore Manager's Guide
PMDF-POP-6.0

The MessageStore comes with a web-based management utility, a command-line management facility, and a reconstruct utility for managing the MessageStore. In addition, a number of third party IMAP clients and utilities are available which take advantage of the management capabilities provided by the IMAP protocol and the IMAP ACL and QUOTA extensions.

2.5.1 Web-based management utility

• The URL for the web-based MessageStore Management utility is

  http://host:7633/msgstore/admin.html 
  

• The template files used by the utility are located in the directory /pmdf/www/msgstore on UNIX and NT platforms and PMDF_ROOT:[www.msgstore] on OpenVMS platforms.
• The MessageStore does not have a command to rename user accounts, and the web-based interface does not provide access to messages in the MessageStore. In particular, the following commands are not supported with MessageStore accounts: add_user, delete_message, delete_messages, rename_user, and show_message. In addition, the message_count command parameter is not supported. Finally, the following format strings are not supported with MessageStore accounts: message_count, msg_*, and msgr_*.

  See Chapter 4 for detailed information on the use of the web-based management utility.

  2.5.2 Command line management utility

  The MessageStore's command-line management utility is very similar to the poptore's command-line management utility described in Chapters 6 and 7 , with the following differences:
  • The command to invoke the utility is

    # pmdf msgstore
    

  • The template files used by the utility are located in the directory /pmdf/www/msgstore on UNIX and NT platforms and PMDF_ROOT:[www.msgstore] on OpenVMS platforms.
  • The MessageStore does not have a command to rename user accounts, and access to stored messages is not provided via the management utilities. In particular, the following command switches---qualifiers on OpenVMS---are not supported for use with MessageStore accounts: -message_count and -messages.

    See Chapters 6 and 7 for detailed information.
