NAME
ctl_deliver - Cyrus IMAP documentation
Perform operations on the duplicate delivery database
SYNOPSIS
ctl_deliver [ -C config-file ] -d [ -f filename ]
DESCRIPTION
ctl_deliver is used to perform various administrative operations on the duplicate delivery database.
ctl_deliver reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) <#std-cyrusman-imapd.conf-5> file unless specified otherwise by -C. The configdirectory option in imapd.conf(5) <#std-cyrusman-imapd.conf-5> is used to determine the default location of the delivery database.
OPTIONS
- -C config-file
- Use the specified configuration file config-file rather than the default imapd.conf(5) <#std-cyrusman-imapd.conf-5>.
- -d, --dump
- Dump the contents of the database to standard output in a portable flat-text format.
- -f filename, --filename=filename
- Use the database specified by filename instead of the default (configdirectory/deliver.db).
EXAMPLES
ctl_deliver -d
Dump configdirectory/deliver.db to
STDOUT
ctl_deliver -d -f /tmp/deliverdb.txt
Dump configdirectory/deliver.db to
/tmp/deliverdb.txt.
