+
+On Debian 9 (codename *Stretch*) and later, installing [`interimap`(1)]
+is a single command away:
+
+ $ apt-get install interimap
+
+This document is for those who are running other systems, and/or who
+wish to install from [source](https://git.guilhem.org/interimap).
+
+
+Dependencies
+============
+
+[`interimap`(1)](interimap.1.html) depends on Perl ≥5.20 and the
+following Perl modules:
+
+ * [`Compress::Raw::Zlib`](https://perldoc.perl.org/Compress/Raw/Zlib.html) (*core module*)
+ * [`Config::Tiny`](https://metacpan.org/pod/Config::Tiny)
+ * [`DBI`](https://metacpan.org/pod/DBI)
+ * [`DBD::SQLite`](https://metacpan.org/pod/DBD::SQLite)
+ * [`Errno`](https://perldoc.perl.org/Errno.html) (*core module*)
+ * [`Getopt::Long`](https://perldoc.perl.org/Getopt/Long.html) (*core module*)
+ * [`MIME::Base64`](https://perldoc.perl.org/MIME/Base64.html) (*core module*) — if authentication is required
+ * [`List::Util`](https://perldoc.perl.org/List/Util.html) (*core module*)
+ * [`Net::SSLeay`](https://metacpan.org/pod/Net::SSLeay) ≥1.73
+ * [`POSIX`](https://perldoc.perl.org/POSIX.html) (*core module*)
+ * [`Socket`](https://perldoc.perl.org/Socket.html) (*core module*)
+ * [`Time::HiRes`](https://perldoc.perl.org/Time/HiRes.html) (*core module*) — if `logfile` is set
+
+On Debian GNU/Linux systems, the dependencies can be installed with the
+following command:
+
+ $ apt install libconfig-tiny-perl \
+ libdbi-perl \
+ libdbd-sqlite3-perl \
+ libnet-ssleay-perl
+
+Additional packages are required in order to run the test suite:
+
+ $ apt install dovecot-imapd procps sqlite3 xxd
+<!-- -->
+ $ make test
+
+
+Generate documentation
+======================
+
+Yet another set of packages is needed to generate the documentation:
+
+ $ apt install jq pandoc
+
+Run `` `make manual` `` (or just `` `make` ``) in order to generate the
+manpages. You'll find them at `doc/*.[1-9]`. Use for instance `` `man
+-l doc/interimap.1` `` in order to read your copy of the [`interimap`(1)]
+manpage.
+
+The HTML documentation can be built with `` `make html` ``. HTML files
+are generated alongside their Markdown source by default, but you can
+choose another target directory using the `HTML_ROOTDIR` environment
+variable (the value of which defaults to `./doc`). Moreover the
+[`libjs-bootstrap`](https://tracker.debian.org/libjs-bootstrap) is
+needed by default for the local CSS file; this can be controlled with
+the `CSS` environment variable (the value of which defaults to
+`/usr/share/javascript/bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css`).
+
+For instance, use
+
+ $ CSS="https://guilhem.org/static/css/bootstrap.min.css" \
+ HTML_ROOTDIR="$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/interimap" \
+ make html
+
+to generate the HTML documentation under directory `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/interimap`
+(which needs to exist) using a remote CSS file.
+
+The `doc` target generates all documentation, manpages as well as HTML
+pages.
+
+
+Build custom Debian package
+===========================
+
+Debian GNU/Linux users can also use [`gbp`(1)] from
+[`git-buildpackage`](https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/git-buildpackage) in
+order to build their own package:
+
+ $ git checkout debian
+ $ gbp buildpackage
+
+Alternatively, for the development version:
+
+ $ git checkout debian
+ $ git merge master
+ $ gbp buildpackage --git-force-create --git-upstream-tree=BRANCH

+% Test environment setup for [`interimap`(1)] and [`pullimap`(1)]
+% Guilhem Moulin <guilhem@fripost.org>
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+This document describes how to create dummy mail storage for
+[`interimap`(1)] and/or [`pullimap`(1)] development, using
+[Dovecot](https://dovecot.org) as [IMAP4rev1] server. Start by creating
+a new temporary directory:
+
+ $ BASEDIR="$(mktemp --tmpdir --directory)"
+
+(The leading `$ ` in this document are command-line prompt strings, and
+are not part of the command themselves.)
+
+
+Dovecot configuration
+=====================
+
+Create a file `$BASEDIR/dovecot.conf`, which will be used as
+configuration for the various Dovecot commands (the system configuration
+will be skipped).
+
+ $ cat >"$BASEDIR/dovecot.conf" <<-EOF
+ log_path = "$BASEDIR/dovecot.log"
+ ssl = no
+ mail_home = "$BASEDIR/%u"
+ mail_location = maildir:~/mail
+ EOF
+
+Here are some details on the above:
+
+`log_path`
+
+ : Dovecot [logs to syslog](https://wiki.dovecot.org/Logging) by default.
+ It's annoying to clutter syslog with test entries, so instead we make it
+ log to a file under `$BASEDIR`.
+
+`ssl`
+
+ : Not required, but turned off here so dumping the configuration with
+ `` `doveconf -c "$BASEDIR/dovecot.conf" -n` `` doesn't spew a warning.
+
+`mail_home`
+
+ : Dovecot needs the name of the user to (pre-)authenticate. It is shown
+ in the greeting line, and also used in [`%`-variable] expansion.
+ Several [`doveadm`(1)] sub-commands have a `-u` (or `-d`) option which
+ can be used to determine the username. When this option is not set,
+ the username is taken from the `USER` environment variable. If that
+ environment variable is unset as well, then the return string of
+ [`getlogin`(3)](https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/getlogin.html)
+ is used.
+
+ Similarly, the user's home directory is used in (`~`- and)
+ [`%`-variable] expansion. It's taken from the `HOME` environment
+ variable when the `mail_home` setting is left unset in the Dovecot
+ configuration (and not overridden by the [user database](https://wiki.dovecot.org/UserDatabase)).
+
+ `mail_home` can therefore be left unset if the `HOME` environment
+ variable is consistently set to `$BASEDIR/$USER`. However it's
+ safer to explicitly set it in the configuration file: otherwise a
+ command run in a non-curated environment might mess up with your own
+ mail storage…
+
+`mail_location`
+
+ : The user's mail storage resides — in [Maildir](https://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation/Maildir)
+ format — in a directory `mail` under their home directory. This is
+ enough if you're fine with the default IMAP hierarchy delimiter
+ (which depends on the mail format) is used, and if you need a single
+ [IMAP namespace](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2342). For more
+ complex setups you'll need one or more
+ [`namespace {…}` block](https://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces).
+
+
+Mail storage access
+===================
+
+Feel free to point a mail client at the dummy mail storage. To start a
+pre-authenticated [IMAP4rev1] in the test environment for username
+`testuser`, list mailboxes, and exit, run:
+
+ $ env -i PATH="/usr/bin:/bin" USER="testuser" \
+ doveadm -c "$BASEDIR/dovecot.conf" exec imap
+ * PREAUTH [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 …] Logged in as testuser
+ a LIST "" "*"
+ * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." INBOX
+ a OK List completed (0.002 + 0.000 + 0.001 secs).
+ q LOGOUT
+ q OK Logout completed (0.001 + 0.000 secs).
+
+For mailbox (create, delete, rename) and message (add, flag update)
+manipulation you can use your mail client, the relevant [IMAP4rev1]
+commands, or simply the [`doveadm`(1)] tools. Here is an example using
+the latter to create a mailbox `foo`, add a sample message to it, and
+finally mark it as `\Seen`.
+
+ $ env -i PATH="/usr/bin:/bin" USER="testuser" \
+ doveadm -c "$BASEDIR/dovecot.conf" mailbox create "foo"
+<!-- -->
+ $ env -i PATH="/usr/bin:/bin" USER="testuser" HOME="$BASEDIR/testuser" \
+ doveadm -c "$BASEDIR/dovecot.conf" exec dovecot-lda -e -m "foo" <<-EOF
+ From: <sender@example.net>
+ To: <recipient@example.net>
+ Subject: Hello world!
+ Date: $(date -R)
+ Message-ID: <$(</proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid)@example.net>
+
+ Hello world!
+ EOF
+<!-- -->
+ $ env -i PATH="/usr/bin:/bin" USER="testuser" \
+ doveadm -c "$BASEDIR/dovecot.conf" flags add "\\Seen" mailbox "foo" "*"
+
+Normally [`dovecot-lda`(1)](https://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA) tries to do a
+userdb lookup in order to determine the user's home directory. Since we
+didn't configure a user database we need to explicitly set the `HOME`
+environment variable.
+
+
+InterIMAP configuration and test
+================================
+
+In this example the peers to synchronize are sharing the same Dovecot
+configuration file `$BASEDIR/dovecot.conf`. Of course, it's also
+possible to use a different configuration on each “server”, for instance
+in order to specify different hierarchy delimiters, namespaces, or mail
+storage format.
+
+Create an [`interimap`(1)] configuration file to synchronize the `local`
+and `remote` accounts.
+
+ $ cat >"$BASEDIR/interimap.conf" <<-EOF
+ database = $BASEDIR/interimap.db
+
+ [local]
+ type = tunnel
+ command = env -i PATH="$PATH" USER="local" doveadm -c "$BASEDIR/dovecot.conf" exec imap
+
+ [remote]
+ type = tunnel
+ command = env -i PATH="$PATH" USER="remote" doveadm -c "$BASEDIR/dovecot.conf" exec imap
+ EOF
+
+Run [`interimap`(1)] without `--watch` in order to create the database.
+
+ $ env -i PATH="$PATH" perl -I./lib -T ./interimap --config="$BASEDIR/interimap.conf"
+ Creating new schema in database file …/interimap.db
+ database: Created mailbox INBOX
+ […]
+
+You can now run [`interimap`(1)] with `--watch` set, here to one second
+to observe synchronisation steps early.
+
+ $ env -i PATH="$PATH" perl -I./lib -T ./interimap --config="$BASEDIR/interimap.conf" \
+ --watch=1 --debug
+
+Use instructions from the [previous section][Mail storage access]
+(substituting `testuser` with `local` or `remote`) in order to simulate
+activity on either end to synchronize. If you run these commands in
+another shell, then make sure to re-set the `BASEDIR` environment
+variable!
+
+
+PullIMAP configuration and test
+===============================
+
+Create a [`pullimap`(1)] configuration file with as section `[foo]`.
+
+ $ cat >"$BASEDIR/pullimap.conf" <<-EOF
+ [foo]
+ type = tunnel
+ command = env -i PATH="$PATH" USER="testuser" doveadm -c "$BASEDIR/dovecot.conf" exec imap
+ statefile = $BASEDIR/pullimap.foo
+ EOF
+
+Run [`pullimap`(1)] without `--idle` in order to create the state file.
+
+ $ env -i PATH="$PATH" perl -I./lib -T ./pullimap --config="$BASEDIR/pullimap.conf" \
+ --no-delivery foo
+
+You can now run [`pullimap`(1)] with `--idle` set.
+
+ $ env -i PATH="$PATH" perl -I./lib -T ./pullimap --config="$BASEDIR/pullimap.conf" \
+ --no-delivery --idle --debug foo
+
+Use instructions from the [previous section][Mail storage access]
+in order to simulate activity on the “remote” server (in the relevant
+mailbox — `INBOX` by default). If you run these commands in another
+shell, then make sure to re-set the `BASEDIR` environment variable!
+
+
+Cleanup
+=======
+
+To remove temporary directories and the message they contain, simply
+recursively remove the directory `$BASEDIR`.
+
+ $ rm -rf -- "$BASEDIR"

+
+InterIMAP - Fast bidirectional synchronization for QRESYNC-capable IMAP servers
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+`interimap` [*OPTION* ...] [*COMMAND*] [*MAILBOX* ...]
+
+Description
+===========
+
+`interimap` performs stateful synchronization between two IMAP4rev1
+servers.
+Such synchronization is made possible by the [`QRESYNC` IMAP
+extension][RFC 7162]; for convenience reasons servers must also support
+the [`LIST-EXTENDED`][RFC 5258], [`LIST-STATUS`][RFC 5819] (or
+[`NOTIFY`][RFC 5465]) and [`UIDPLUS`][RFC 4315] IMAP extensions.
+See also the **[supported extensions](#supported-extensions)** section
+below.
+
+Stateful synchronization is only possible for mailboxes supporting
+persistent message Unique Identifiers (UID) and persistent storage of
+mod-sequences (MODSEQ); any non-compliant mailbox will cause `interimap`
+to abort.
+Furthermore, because UIDs are allocated not by the client but by the
+server, `interimap` needs to keep track of associations between local
+and remote UIDs for each mailbox.
+The synchronization state of a mailbox consists of its `UIDNEXT` and
+`HIGHESTMODSEQ` values on each server; it is then assumed that each
+message with UID smaller than `UIDNEXT` have been replicated to the
+other server, and that the metadata (such as flags) of each message with
+MODSEQ at most `HIGHESTMODSEQ` have been synchronized.
+Conceptually, the synchronization algorithm is derived from [RFC 4549]
+with the [RFC 7162] (sec. 6) amendments, and works as follows:
+
+ 1. `SELECT` (on both servers) a mailbox the current `UIDNEXT` or `HIGHESTMODSEQ`
+ values of which differ from the values found in the database (for
+ either server). Use the `QRESYNC` `SELECT` parameter from [RFC
+ 7162] to list changes (vanished messages and flag updates) since
+ `HIGHESTMODSEQ` to messages with UID smaller than `UIDNEXT`.
+
+ 2. Propagate these changes onto the other server: get the corresponding
+ UIDs from the database, then:
+ a. issue a `UID STORE` command, followed by `UID EXPUNGE`, to
+ remove messages that have not already been deleted on both
+ servers; and
+ b. issue some `UID STORE` commands to propagate flag updates (send
+ a single command for each flag list in order the reduce the
+ number of round trips).
+
+ (Conflicts may occur if the metadata of a message has been updated
+ on both servers with different flag lists; in that case, `interimap`
+ issues a warning and updates the message on each server with the
+ union of both flag lists.)
+ Repeat this step if the server sent some updates in the meantime.
+ Otherwise, update the `HIGHESTMODSEQ` value in the database.
+
+ 3. Process new messages (if the current `UIDNEXT` value of the mailbox
+ differs from the one found in the database) by issuing a `UID FETCH`
+ command; process each received message on-the-fly by issuing an
+ `APPEND` command with the message's `RFC822` body, `FLAGS` and
+ `INTERNALDATE`.
+ Repeat this step if the server received new messages in the
+ meantime. Otherwise, update the `UIDNEXT` value in the database.
+ Go back to step 2 if the server sent some metadata (such as flag)
+ updates in the meantime.
+
+ 4. Go back to step 1 to proceed with the next unsynchronized mailbox.
+
+Commands
+========
+
+By default, `interimap` synchronizes each mailbox listed by the `LIST ""
+"*"` IMAP command;
+the *list-mailbox*, *list-select-opts* and *ignore-mailbox* options from
+the [configuration file](#configuration-file) can be used to shrink that
+list and save bandwidth.
+However if some extra argument are provided on the command line,
+`interimap` ignores these options and synchronizes the given
+*MAILBOX*es instead. Note that each *MAILBOX* is taken “as is”; in
+particular, it must be [UTF-7 encoded][RFC 2152], unquoted, and the list
+wildcards ‘\*’ and ‘%’ are passed verbatim to the IMAP server.
+
+If the synchronization was interrupted during a previous run while some
+messages were being replicated (but before the `UIDNEXT` or
+`HIGHESTMODSEQ` values have been updated), `interimap` performs a “full
+synchronization” on theses messages: downloading the whole UID and flag
+lists on each servers allows `interimap` to detect messages that have
+been removed or for which their flags have changed in the meantime.
+Finally, after propagating the offline changes for these messages,
+`interimap` resumes the synchronization for the rest of the mailbox.
+
+Specifying one of the commands below makes `interimap` perform an action
+other than the default [`QRESYNC`][RFC 7162]-based synchronization.
+
+`--repair` [*MAILBOX* ...]
+
+: List the database anomalies and try to repair them. (Consider only
+ the given *MAILBOX*es if non-optional arguments are provided.)
+ This is done by performing a so-called “full synchronization”,
+ namely:
+ 1/ download all UIDs along with their flag list both from the
+ local and remote servers;
+ 2/ ensure that each entry in the database corresponds to an
+ existing UID; and
+ 3/ ensure that both flag lists match.
+ Any message found on a server but not in the database is replicated
+ on the other server (which in the worst case, might yield a message
+ duplicate).
+ Flag conflicts are solved by updating each message to the union of
+ both lists.
+
+`--delete` *MAILBOX* [*MAILBOX* ...]
+
+: Delete the given *MAILBOX*es on each target (by default each server
+ plus the database, unless `--target` specifies otherwise) where it
+ exists.
+ Note that per the [IMAP4rev1 standard][RFC 3501] deletion is not
+ recursive. Thus *MAILBOX*'s children are not deleted.
+
+`--rename` *SOURCE* *DEST*
+
+: Rename the mailbox *SOURCE* to *DEST* on each target (by default
+ each server plus the database, unless `--target` specifies
+ otherwise) where it exists.
+ `interimap` aborts if *DEST* already exists on either target.
+ Note that per the [IMAP4rev1 standard][RFC 3501] renaming is
+ recursive. Thus *SOURCE*'s children are moved to become *DEST*'s
+ children instead.
+
+Options
+=======
+
+`--config=`*FILE*
+
+: Specify an alternate [configuration file](#configuration-file).
+ Relative paths start from *$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/interimap*, or *~/.config/interimap*
+ if the `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` environment variable is unset.
+
+`--target={local,remote,database}`
+
+: Limit the scope of a `--delete` or `--rename` command to the given
+ target. Can be repeated to act on multiple targets. By default all
+ three targets are considered.
+
+`--watch`[`=`*seconds*]
+
+: Don't exit after a successful synchronization. Instead, keep
+ synchronizing forever. Sleep for the given number of *seconds* (by
+ default 1 minute if `--notify` is unset, and 15 minutes if
+ `--notify` is set) between two synchronizations. Setting this
+ options enables `SO_KEEPALIVE` on the socket for *type*s other than
+ `tunnel`.
+
+`--notify`
+
+: Whether to use the [IMAP `NOTIFY` extension][RFC 5465] to instruct
+ the server to automatically send updates to the client. (Both local
+ and remote servers must support [RFC 5465] for this to work.)
+ This greatly reduces IMAP traffic since `interimap` can rely on
+ server notifications instead of manually polling for updates.
+ If the connection remains idle for 15 minutes (configurable with
+ `--watch`), then `interimap` sends a `NOOP` command to avoid being
+ logged out for inactivity.
+
+`-q`, `--quiet`
+
+: Try to be quiet.
+
+`--debug`
+
+: Turn on debug mode. Debug messages are written to the given *logfile*.
+ Note that this include all IMAP traffic (except literals).
+ Depending on the chosen authentication mechanism, this might include
+ authentication credentials.
+
+`-h`, `--help`
+
+: Output a brief help and exit.
+
+`--version`
+
+: Show the version number and exit.
+
+Configuration file
+==================
+
+Unless told otherwise by the `--config=FILE` command-line option,
+`interimap` reads its configuration from *$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/interimap/config*
+(or *~/.config/interimap/config* if the `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` environment
+variable is unset) as an [INI file].
+The syntax of the configuration file is a series of `OPTION=VALUE`
+lines organized under some `[SECTION]`; lines starting with a ‘#’ or
+‘;’ character are ignored as comments.
+The `[local]` and `[remote]` sections define the two IMAP servers to
+synchronize.
+Valid options are:
+
+*database*
+
+: SQLite version 3 database file to use to keep track of associations
+ between local and remote UIDs, as well as the `UIDVALIDITY`,
+ `UIDNEXT` and `HIGHESTMODSEQ` of each known mailbox on both servers.
+ Relative paths start from *$XDG_DATA_HOME/interimap*, or
+ *~/.local/share/interimap* if the `XDG_DATA_HOME` environment
+ variable is unset. This option is only available in the default
+ section.
+ (Default: `HOST.db`, where *HOST* is taken from the `[remote]` or
+ `[local]` sections, in that order.)
+
+*list-reference*
+
+: An optional “reference name” to use for the initial `LIST` command,
+ indicating the context in which the *MAILBOX*es are interpreted.
+ For instance, by specifying `list-reference=perso/` in the `[local]`
+ section, *MAILBOX* names are interpreted relative to `perso/` on the
+ local server; in other words the remote mailbox hierarchy is mapped
+ to the `perso/` sub-hierarchy on the local server. This is useful
+ for synchronizing multiple remote servers against different
+ namespaces belonging to the same local IMAP server (using a
+ different `interimap` instance for each local namespace ↔ remote
+ synchronization).
+
+ (Note that if the reference name is not a level of mailbox hierarchy
+ and/or does not end with the hierarchy delimiter, by [RFC 3501] its
+ interpretation by the IMAP server is implementation-dependent.)
+
+*list-mailbox*
+
+: A space separated list of mailbox patterns to use when issuing the
+ initial `LIST` command (overridden by the *MAILBOX*es given as
+ command-line arguments).
+ Names containing special characters such as spaces or brackets need
+ to be enclosed in double quotes. Within double quotes C-style
+ backslash escape sequences can be used (‘\\t’ for an horizontal tab,
+ ‘\\n’ for a new line, ‘\\\\’ for a backslash, etc.), as well as
+ hexadecimal escape sequences ‘\\xHH’.
+ Furthermore, non-ASCII names must be [UTF-7 encoded][RFC 2152].
+ Two wildcards are available, and passed verbatim to the IMAP server:
+ a ‘\*’ character matches zero or more characters, while a ‘%’
+ character matches zero or more characters up to the hierarchy
+ delimiter.
+ This option is only available in the default section.
+ (The default pattern, `*`, matches all visible mailboxes on the
+ server.)
+
+*list-select-opts*
+
+: An optional space separated list of selectors for the initial `LIST`
+ command. (Requires a server supporting the [`LIST-EXTENDED` IMAP
+ extension][RFC 5258].) Useful values are `SUBSCRIBED` (to list only
+ subscribed mailboxes), `REMOTE` (to also list remote mailboxes on a
+ server supporting mailbox referrals), and `RECURSIVEMATCH` (to
+ list parent mailboxes with children matching one of the above
+ *list-mailbox* patterns). This option is only available in the
+ default section.
+
+*ignore-mailbox*
+
+: An optional Perl Compatible Regular Expressions ([PCRE]) covering
+ mailboxes to exclude: any ([UTF-7 encoded][RFC 2152] and unquoted)
+ mailbox listed in the initial `LIST` responses is ignored if it
+ matches the given expression.
+ Note that the *MAILBOX*es given as command-line arguments bypass the
+ check and are always considered for synchronization. This option is
+ only available in the default section.
+
+*logfile*
+
+: A file name to use to log debug and informational messages. (By
+ default these messages are written to the error output.) This
+ option is only available in the default section.
+
+*type*
+
+: One of `imap`, `imaps` or `tunnel`.
+ `type=imap` and `type=imaps` are respectively used for IMAP and IMAP
+ over SSL/TLS connections over an INET socket.
+ `type=tunnel` causes `interimap` to create an unnamed pair of
+ connected sockets for interprocess communication with a *command*
+ instead of opening a network socket.
+ Note that specifying `type=tunnel` in the `[remote]` section makes
+ the default *database* to be `localhost.db`.
+ (Default: `imaps`.)
+
+*host*
+
+: Server hostname, for `type=imap` and `type=imaps`.
+ (Default: `localhost`.)
+
+*port*
+
+: Server port.
+ (Default: `143` for `type=imap`, `993` for `type=imaps`.)
+
+*proxy*
+
+: An optional SOCKS proxy to use for TCP connections to the IMAP
+ server (`type=imap` and `type=imaps` only), formatted as
+ `PROTOCOL://[USER:PASSWORD@]PROXYHOST[:PROXYPORT]`.
+ If `PROXYPORT` is omitted, it is assumed at port 1080.
+ Only [SOCKSv5][RFC 1928] is supported (with optional
+ [username/password authentication][RFC 1929]), in two flavors:
+ `socks5://` to resolve *hostname* locally, and `socks5h://` to let
+ the proxy resolve *hostname*.
+
+*command*
+
+: Command to use for `type=tunnel`. Must speak the [IMAP4rev1
+ protocol][RFC 3501] on its standard output, and understand it on its
+ standard input. The value is passed to `` `/bin/sh -c` `` if it
+ contains shell metacharacters; otherwise it is split into words and
+ the resulting list is passed to `execvp`(3).
+
+*STARTTLS*
+
+: Whether to use the [`STARTTLS`][RFC 2595] directive to upgrade to a
+ secure connection. Setting this to `YES` for a server not
+ advertising the `STARTTLS` capability causes `interimap` to
+ immediately abort the connection.
+ (Ignored for *type*s other than `imap`. Default: `YES`.)
+
+*auth*
+
+: Space-separated list of preferred authentication mechanisms.
+ `interimap` uses the first mechanism in that list that is also
+ advertised (prefixed with `AUTH=`) in the server's capability list.
+ Supported authentication mechanisms are `PLAIN` and `LOGIN`.
+ (Default: `PLAIN LOGIN`.)
+
+*username*, *password*
+
+: Username and password to authenticate with. Can be required for non
+ pre-authenticated connections, depending on the chosen
+ authentication mechanism.
+
+*compress*
+
+: Whether to use the [`IMAP COMPRESS` extension][RFC 4978] for servers
+ advertising it.
+ (Default: `NO` for the `[local]` section, `YES` for the `[remote]`
+ section.)
+
+*null-stderr*
+
+: Whether to redirect *command*'s standard error to `/dev/null` for
+ `type=tunnel`. (Default: `NO`.)
+
+*SSL_protocols*
+
+: A space-separated list of SSL protocols to enable or disable (if
+ prefixed with an exclamation mark `!`. Known protocols are `SSLv2`,
+ `SSLv3`, `TLSv1`, `TLSv1.1`, `TLSv1.2`, and `TLSv1.3`. Enabling a
+ protocol is a short-hand for disabling all other protocols.
+ (Default: `!SSLv2 !SSLv3 !TLSv1 !TLSv1.1`, i.e., only enable TLSv1.2
+ and above.)
+
+*SSL_cipher_list*
+
+: The cipher list to send to the server. Although the server
+ determines which cipher suite is used, it should take the first
+ supported cipher in the list sent by the client. See
+ [`ciphers`(1ssl)] for more information.
+
+*SSL_fingerprint*
+
+: Fingerprint of the server certificate's Subject Public Key Info, in
+ the form `[ALGO$]DIGEST_HEX` where `ALGO` is the used algorithm (by
+ default `sha256`).
+ Attempting to connect to a server with a non-matching certificate
+ SPKI fingerprint causes `interimap` to abort the connection during
+ the SSL/TLS handshake.
+ The following command can be used to compute the SHA-256 digest of a
+ certificate's Subject Public Key Info:
+
+ openssl x509 -in /path/to/server/certificate.pem -pubkey \
+ | openssl pkey -pubin -outform DER \
+ | openssl dgst -sha256
+
+*SSL_verify*
+
+: Whether to verify the server certificate chain.
+ Note that using *SSL_fingerprint* to specify the fingerprint of the
+ server certificate is an orthogonal authentication measure as it
+ ignores the CA chain.
+ (Default: `YES`.)
+
+*SSL_CApath*
+
+: Directory to use for server certificate verification if
+ `SSL_verify=YES`.
+ This directory must be in “hash format”, see [`verify`(1ssl)] for
+ more information.
+
+*SSL_CAfile*
+
+: File containing trusted certificates to use during server
+ certificate authentication if `SSL_verify=YES`.
+
+Supported extensions
+====================
+
+`interimap` takes advantage of servers supporting the following
+extensions to the [IMAP4rev1 protocol][RFC 3501] (those marked as
+“recommended” give the most significant performance gain):
+
+ * `LITERAL+` ([RFC 2088], recommended);
+ * `MULTIAPPEND` ([RFC 3502], recommended);
+ * `COMPRESS=DEFLATE` ([RFC 4978], recommended);
+ * `NOTIFY` ([RFC 5465], recommended);
+ * `SASL-IR` ([RFC 4959]); and
+ * `UNSELECT` ([RFC 3691]).
+
+Known bugs and limitations
+==========================
+
+ * Using `interimap` on two identical servers with a non-existent or
+ empty *database* will duplicate each message due to the absence of
+ local ↔ remote UID association. Hence one needs to manually empty
+ the mail store on one end when migrating to `interimap` from another
+ synchronisation solution.
+
+ * `interimap` is single threaded and doesn't use IMAP command
+ pipelining. Synchronization could be boosted up by sending
+ independent commands (such as the initial `LIST` and `STATUS`
+ commands) to both servers in parallel, and for a given server, by
+ sending independent commands (such as flag updates) in a pipeline.
+
+ * Because the [IMAP protocol][RFC 3501] doesn't have a specific
+ response code for when a message is moved to another mailbox (either
+ using the `MOVE` command from [RFC 6851], or via `COPY` + `STORE` +
+ `EXPUNGE`), moving a message causes `interimap` to believe that it
+ was deleted while another one (which is replicated again) was added
+ to the other mailbox in the meantime.
+
+ * `PLAIN` and `LOGIN` are the only authentication mechanisms currently
+ supported.
+
+ * `interimap` will probably not work with non [RFC][RFC 3501]-compliant
+ servers. In particular, no work-around is currently implemented
+ beside the tunables in the [configuration file](#configuration-file).
+ Moreover, few IMAP servers have been tested so far.

+PullIMAP - Pull mails from an IMAP mailbox and deliver them to an SMTP session
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+`pullimap` [**\-\-config=***FILE*] [**\-\-idle**[**=***SECONDS*]]
+[**\-\-no-delivery**] [**\-\-quiet**] *SECTION*
+
+Description
+===========
+
+`pullimap` retrieves messages from an IMAP mailbox and deliver them to
+an SMTP or LMTP transmission channel. It can also remove old messages
+after a configurable retention period.
+
+A *statefile* is used to keep track of the mailbox's `UIDVALIDITY` and
+`UIDNEXT` values. While `pullimap` is running, the *statefile* is also
+used to keep track of UIDs being delivered, which avoids duplicate
+deliveries in case the process is interrupted.
+See the **[control flow](#control-flow)** section below for details.
+
+Options
+=======
+
+`--config=`*FILE*
+
+: Specify an alternate [configuration file](#configuration-file).
+ Relative paths start from *$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pullimap*, or *~/.config/pullimap*
+ if the `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` environment variable is unset.
+
+`--idle`[`=`*seconds*]
+
+: Don't exit after a successful poll. Instead, keep the connection open
+ and issue `IDLE` commands (require an IMAP server supporting [RFC
+ 2177]) to watch for updates in the mailbox. This also enables
+ `SO_KEEPALIVE` on the socket.
+ Each `IDLE` command is terminated after at most *seconds* (29
+ minutes by default) to avoid being logged out for inactivity.
+
+`--no-delivery`
+
+: Update the *statefile*, but skip SMTP/LMTP delivery. This is mostly
+ useful for initializing the *statefile* when migrating to `pullimap`
+ from another similar program such as [`fetchmail`(1)] or
+ [`getmail`(1)].
+
+`-q`, `--quiet`
+
+: Try to be quiet.
+
+`--debug`
+
+: Turn on debug mode. Debug messages are written to the error output.
+ Note that this include all IMAP traffic (except literals).
+ Depending on the chosen authentication mechanism, this might include
+ authentication credentials.
+
+`-h`, `--help`
+
+: Output a brief help and exit.
+
+`--version`
+
+: Show the version number and exit.
+
+Configuration file
+==================
+
+Unless told otherwise by the `--config=FILE` command-line option,
+`pullimap` reads its configuration from *$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pullimap/config*
+(or *~/.config/pullimap/config* if the `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` environment variable
+is unset) as an [INI file].
+The syntax of the configuration file is a series of `OPTION=VALUE`
+lines organized under some `[SECTION]`; lines starting with a ‘#’ or
+‘;’ character are ignored as comments.
+Valid options are:
+
+*statefile*
+
+: State file to use to keep track of the *mailbox*'s `UIDVALIDITY` and
+ `UIDNEXT` values. Relative paths start from
+ *$XDG_DATA_HOME/pullimap*, or *~/.local/share/pullimap* if the
+ `XDG_DATA_HOME` environment variable is unset.
+ (Default: the parent section name of the option.)
+
+*mailbox*
+
+: The IMAP mailbox ([UTF-7 encoded][RFC 2152] and unquoted) to pull
+ messages from. Support for persistent message Unique Identifiers
+ (UID) is required. (Default: `INBOX`.)
+
+*deliver-method*
+
+: `PROTOCOL:[ADDRESS]:PORT` where to deliver messages. Both
+ [SMTP][RFC 5321] and [LMTP][RFC 2033] servers are supported, and
+ [SMTP pipelining][RFC 2920] is used when possible.
+ (Default: `smtp:[127.0.0.1]:25`.)
+
+*deliver-ehlo*
+
+: Hostname to use in `EHLO` or `LHLO` commands.
+ (Default: `localhost.localdomain`.)
+
+*deliver-rcpt*
+
+: Message recipient. Note that the local part needs to quoted if it
+ contains special characters; see [RFC 5321] for details.
+ (Default: the username associated with the effective uid of the
+ `pullimap` process.)
+
+*purge-after*
+
+: Retention period (in days), after which messages are removed from
+ the IMAP server. (The value is at best 24h accurate due to the IMAP
+ `SEARCH` criterion ignoring time and timezone.)
+ If *purge-after* is set to `0` then messages are deleted immediately
+ after delivery. Otherwise `pullimap` issues an IMAP `SEARCH` (or
+ extended `SEARCH` on servers advertizing the [`ESEARCH`][RFC 4731]
+ capability) command to list old messages; if `--idle` is set then
+ the `SEARCH` command is issued again every 12 hours.
+
+*type*
+
+: One of `imap`, `imaps` or `tunnel`.
+ `type=imap` and `type=imaps` are respectively used for IMAP and IMAP
+ over SSL/TLS connections over an INET socket.
+ `type=tunnel` causes `pullimap` to create an unnamed pair of
+ connected sockets for interprocess communication with a *command*
+ instead of opening a network socket.
+ (Default: `imaps`.)
+
+*host*
+
+: Server hostname, for `type=imap` and `type=imaps`.
+ (Default: `localhost`.)
+
+*port*
+
+: Server port.
+ (Default: `143` for `type=imap`, `993` for `type=imaps`.)
+
+*proxy*
+
+: An optional SOCKS proxy to use for TCP connections to the IMAP
+ server (`type=imap` and `type=imaps` only), formatted as
+ `PROTOCOL://[USER:PASSWORD@]PROXYHOST[:PROXYPORT]`.
+ If `PROXYPORT` is omitted, it is assumed at port 1080.
+ Only [SOCKSv5][RFC 1928] is supported (with optional
+ [username/password authentication][RFC 1929]), in two flavors:
+ `socks5://` to resolve *hostname* locally, and `socks5h://` to let
+ the proxy resolve *hostname*.
+
+*command*
+
+: Command to use for `type=tunnel`. Must speak the [IMAP4rev1
+ protocol][RFC 3501] on its standard output, and understand it on its
+ standard input. The value is passed to `` `/bin/sh -c` `` if it
+ contains shell metacharacters; otherwise it is split into words and
+ the resulting list is passed to `execvp`(3).
+
+*STARTTLS*
+
+: Whether to use the [`STARTTLS`][RFC 2595] directive to upgrade to a
+ secure connection. Setting this to `YES` for a server not
+ advertising the `STARTTLS` capability causes `pullimap` to
+ immediately abort the connection.
+ (Ignored for *type*s other than `imap`. Default: `YES`.)
+
+*auth*
+
+: Space-separated list of preferred authentication mechanisms.
+ `pullimap` uses the first mechanism in that list that is also
+ advertised (prefixed with `AUTH=`) in the server's capability list.
+ Supported authentication mechanisms are `PLAIN` and `LOGIN`.
+ (Default: `PLAIN LOGIN`.)
+
+*username*, *password*
+
+: Username and password to authenticate with. Can be required for non
+ pre-authenticated connections, depending on the chosen
+ authentication mechanism.
+
+*compress*
+
+: Whether to use the [`IMAP COMPRESS` extension][RFC 4978] for servers
+ advertising it. (Default: `YES`.)
+
+*null-stderr*
+
+: Whether to redirect *command*'s standard error to `/dev/null` for
+ `type=tunnel`. (Default: `NO`.)
+
+*SSL_protocols*
+
+: A space-separated list of SSL protocols to enable or disable (if
+ prefixed with an exclamation mark `!`. Known protocols are `SSLv2`,
+ `SSLv3`, `TLSv1`, `TLSv1.1`, `TLSv1.2`, and `TLSv1.3`. Enabling a
+ protocol is a short-hand for disabling all other protocols.
+ (Default: `!SSLv2 !SSLv3 !TLSv1 !TLSv1.1`, i.e., only enable TLSv1.2
+ and above.)
+
+*SSL_cipher_list*
+
+: The cipher list to send to the server. Although the server
+ determines which cipher suite is used, it should take the first
+ supported cipher in the list sent by the client. See
+ [`ciphers`(1ssl)] for more information.
+
+*SSL_fingerprint*
+
+: Fingerprint of the server certificate's Subject Public Key Info, in
+ the form `[ALGO$]DIGEST_HEX` where `ALGO` is the used algorithm (by
+ default `sha256`).
+ Attempting to connect to a server with a non-matching certificate
+ SPKI fingerprint causes `pullimap` to abort the connection during
+ the SSL/TLS handshake.
+ The following command can be used to compute the SHA-256 digest of a
+ certificate's Subject Public Key Info:
+
+ openssl x509 -in /path/to/server/certificate.pem -pubkey \
+ | openssl pkey -pubin -outform DER \
+ | openssl dgst -sha256
+
+*SSL_verify*
+
+: Whether to verify the server certificate chain.
+ Note that using *SSL_fingerprint* to specify the fingerprint of the
+ server certificate is an orthogonal authentication measure as it
+ ignores the CA chain.
+ (Default: `YES`.)
+
+*SSL_CApath*
+
+: Directory to use for server certificate verification if
+ `SSL_verify=YES`.
+ This directory must be in “hash format”, see [`verify`(1ssl)] for
+ more information.
+
+*SSL_CAfile*
+
+: File containing trusted certificates to use during server
+ certificate authentication if `SSL_verify=YES`.
+
+Control flow
+============
+
+`pullimap` opens the *statefile* corresponding to a given configuration
+*SECTION* with `O_DSYNC` to ensure that written data is flushed to the
+underlying hardware by the time [`write`(2)] returns. Moreover an
+exclusive lock is placed on the file descriptor immediately after
+opening to prevent multiple `pullimap` processes from accessing the
+*statefile* concurrently.
+
+Each *statefile* consists of a series of 32-bits big-endian integers.
+Usually there are only two integers: the first is the *mailbox*'s
+`UIDVALIDITY` value, and the second is the *mailbox*'s last seen
+`UIDNEXT` value (`pullimap` then assumes that all messages with UID
+smaller than this `UIDNEXT` value have already been retrieved and
+delivered).
+The [IMAP4rev1 specification][RFC 3501] does not guaranty that untagged
+`FETCH` responses are sent ordered by UID in response to a `UID FETCH`
+command. Thus it would be unsafe for `pullimap` to update the `UIDNEXT`
+value in its *statefile* while the `UID FETCH` command is progress.
+Instead, for each untagged `FETCH` response received while the `UID
+FETCH` command is in progress, `pullimap` delivers the message `RFC822`
+body to the SMTP or LMTP server (specified with *deliver-method*) then
+appends the message UID to the *statefile*.
+When the `UID FETCH` command eventually terminates, `pullimap` updates
+the `UIDNEXT` value in the *statefile* and truncate the file down to 8
+bytes. Keeping track of message UIDs as they are received avoids
+duplicate in the event of a crash or connection loss while the `UID
+FETCH` command is in progress.
+
+In more details, `pullimap` works as follows:
+
+ 1. Issue a `UID FETCH` command to retrieve message `ENVELOPE` and
+ `RFC822` (and `UID`) with UID bigger or equal than the `UIDNEXT`
+ value found in the *statefile*.
+ While the `UID FETCH` command is in progress, perform the following
+ for each untagged `FETCH` response sent by the server:
+
+ i. if no SMTP/LMTP transmission channel was opened, open one to the
+ server specified with *deliver-method* and send an `EHLO` (or
+ `LHO`) command with the domain specified by *deliver-ehlo* (the
+ channel is kept open and shared for all messages retrieved while
+ the `UID FETCH` IMAP command is in progress);
+
+ i. perform a mail transaction (using [SMTP pipelining][RFC 2920] if
+ possible) to deliver the retrieved message `RFC822` body to the
+ SMTP or LMTP session; and
+
+ i. append the message UID to the *statefile*.
+
+ 2. If an SMTP/LMTP transmission channel was opened, send a `QUIT` command
+ to terminate it gracefully.
+
+ 3. Issue a `UID STORE` command to mark all retrieved messages (and
+ stalled UIDs found in the *statefile* after the eigth byte) as
+ `\Seen`.
+
+ 4. Update the *statefile* with the new UIDNEXT value (bytes 5-8).
+
+ 5. Truncate the *statefile* down to 8 bytes (so that it contains only
+ two 32-bits integers, respectively the *mailbox*'s current
+ `UIDVALIDITY` and `UIDNEXT` values).
+
+ 6. If `--idle` was set, issue an `IDLE` command; stop idling and go
+ back to step 1 when a new message is received (or when the `IDLE`
+ timeout expires).
