DESCRIPTIONDovecot is an open source IMAP and POP3 server for Linux/UNIX−like systems, written with security primarily in mind. Dovecot is an excellent choice for both small and large installations. It's fast, simple to set up, requires no special administration and it uses very little memory.

OPTIONS−a  Dump all configuration settings to stdout and exit successfully. The same as doveconf −a. −c config−file  Start dovecot with an alternative configuration. −F  Run dovecot in foreground, do not daemonize. −n  Dump non−default settings to stdout and exit successfully. The same as doveconf −n. −p  Prompt for the ssl key password for the configured ssl_key on startup. −−build−options  Show Dovecot's build options and exit successfully. −−help  Print a usage message to stdout and exit successfully. −−version  Show Dovecot's version and exit successfully.

COMMANDSreload  Force dovecot to reload its configuration. stop  Shutdown dovecot and all its child processes. When shutdown_clients is set to no, existing sessions will continue to use the old settings, after a dovecot reload. Also all sessions will keep alive after a dovecot stop.
By default all active sessions will be shut down.

TERM  Shutdown dovecot and all its child processes. USR1  Force dovecot to reopen all configured log files ( log_path, info_log_path and debug_log_path). The signals ALARM and PIPE are ignored.
