In the Server document, you can configure the ports that
IMAP clients can use to connect to the IMAP service. IMAP clients
can connect over a TCP/IP port or an SSL port. If you have SSL set
up on the server, you can configure the TCP/IP port so that it redirects
connections to the SSL port.
About this task
When a client connects, the IMAP service responds by
sending the client the greeting that is associated with the port the
client uses to connect. In the Configuration Settings document, you
can customize the greetings that the IMAP service returns to clients
connecting over each port.
The IMAP service checks for new
settings at the specified update configuration interval. If you change
the greeting text, sessions that begin after the new configuration
takes effect will receive the updated greeting.
Note: To configure
IMAP service greetings on Domino® release
5 and earlier, use the settings IMAPGreeting
, IMAPRedirectSSLGreeting
,
and IMAPSSLGreeting
in the NOTES.INI file.
