商品描述

IMAP (the Internet Message Access Protocol) allows clients to access their email on a remote server, whether from the office, a remote location, or a cell phone or other device. IMAP is powerful and flexible, but it's also complicated to set up; it's more difficult to implement than POP3 and more error-prone for both client and server.

The Book of IMAP offers a detailed introduction to IMAP and POP3, the two protocols that govern all modern mail servers and clients. You'll learn how the protocols work as well as how to install, configure, and maintain the two most popular open source mail systems, Courier and Cyrus.

Authors Peer Heinlein and Peer Hartleben have set up hundreds of mail servers and offer practical hints about troubleshooting errors, migration, filesystem tuning, cluster setups, and password security that will help you extricate yourself from all sorts of tricky situations. You'll also learn how to:

  • Create and use shared folders, virtual domains, and user quotas
  • Authenticate user data with PAM, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and LDAP
  • Handle heavy traffic with load balancers and proxies
  • Use built-in tools for server analysis, maintenance, and repairs
  • Implement complementary webmail clients like Squirrelmail and Horde/IMP
  • Set up and use the Sieve email filter

Thoroughly commented references to the POP and IMAP protocols round out the book, making The Book of IMAP an essential resource for even the most experienced system administrators.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

IMAP(網際網路郵件存取協定)允許用戶從辦公室、遠程位置、手機或其他設備上訪問遠程郵件服務器。IMAP功能強大且靈活,但設置較為複雜;相比POP3,它的實施更加困難,對客戶端和服務器都更容易出錯。

《IMAP之書》詳細介紹了IMAP和POP3這兩個控制現代郵件服務器和客戶端的協議。您將學習這些協議的工作原理,以及如何安裝、配置和維護兩個最流行的開源郵件系統Courier和Cyrus。

作者Peer Heinlein和Peer Hartleben已經設置了數百個郵件服務器,並提供了有關故障排除、遷移、文件系統調整、集群設置和密碼安全的實用提示,這些提示將幫助您擺脫各種棘手的情況。您還將學習以下內容:
- 創建和使用共享文件夾、虛擬域和用戶配額
- 使用PAM、MySQL、PostgreSQL和LDAP驗證用戶數據
- 使用負載均衡器和代理處理高流量
- 使用內置工具進行服務器分析、維護和修復
- 實施類似Squirrelmail和Horde/IMP的網頁郵件客戶端
- 設置和使用Sieve郵件過濾器

書中還詳細解釋了POP和IMAP協議,使《IMAP之書》成為即使對於最有經驗的系統管理員來說也是一個必不可少的資源。
