Directives
| Syntax: |
imap_auth |
|---|---|
| Default: |
imap_auth plain; |
| Context: |
mail, server |
Sets permitted methods of authentication for IMAP clients. Supported methods are:
login- AUTH=LOGIN
plain- AUTH=PLAIN
cram-md5- AUTH=CRAM-MD5. In order for this method to work, the password must be stored unencrypted.
| Syntax: |
imap_capabilities |
|---|---|
| Default: |
imap_capabilities IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS; |
| Context: |
mail, server |
Sets the
IMAP protocol
extensions list that is passed to the client in response to
the CAPABILITY command.
The authentication methods specified in the imap_auth and
STARTTLS directives
are automatically added to this list if the
starttls directive is enabled.
It makes sense to specify the extensions supported by the IMAP backends to which the clients are proxied (if these extensions are related to commands used after the authentication, when nginx transparently proxies a client connection to the backend).
The current list of standardized extensions is published at www.iana.org.
| Syntax: |
imap_client_buffer |
|---|---|
| Default: |
imap_client_buffer 4k|8k; |
| Context: |
mail, server |
Sets the IMAP commands read buffer size. By default, the buffer size is equal to one memory page. This is either 4K or 8K, depending on a platform.
