Configuring Pop3/Imap4 Services; Enabling Pop3/Imap4 Services - Novell GROUPWISE 8 - ADMINISTRATION Administration Manual

The Internet Agent uses the detect code to map to a MIME content type and then encode the file
according to the assigned encoding scheme. If there is no mapping specified or if the file type cannot
be determined, one of the other mapping methods, such as Extension-Mappings, are used. The
detect codes associated with attachments are GroupWise internal codes and cannot be changed.

46.2 Configuring POP3/IMAP4 Services

The Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) and the Internet Message Access Protocol 4 (IMAP4) are
standard messaging protocols for the Internet. The GroupWise Internet Agent can function as a
POP3 or an IMAP server, allowing access to the GroupWise domain database and message store.
With POP3 or IMAP server functionality enabled, GroupWise users can download their messages
from GroupWise to any POP3/IMAP4-compliant Internet e-mail client. To send messages, POP3/
IMAP4 clients can identify the Internet Agent as their SMTP server.
Complete the instructions in the following sections to set up POP3/IMAP4 service:
Section 46.2.1, "Enabling POP3/IMAP4 Services," on page 752
Section 46.2.2, "Configuring Post Office Links," on page 754
Section 46.2.3, "Giving POP3 or IMAP4 Access Rights to Users," on page 755
Section 46.2.4, "Setting Up an E-Mail Client for POP3/IMAP4 Services," on page 755
NOTE: Internal IMAP clients can connect directly to the POA, rather than connecting through the
Internet Agent, as described in
connection provides faster access for internal IMAP clients.
