NAME
sync_reset - Cyrus IMAP documentation
Account reset utility. DANGER.
SYNOPSIS
sync_reset [ -C config-file ] [ -v ] [ -f ]
DESCRIPTION
sync_reset is a small utility program to destroy user accounts on a system. The only safeguard which is in place is the obligatory force option.
sync_reset reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) <#std-cyrusman-imapd.conf-5> file unless specified otherwise by -C.
OPTIONS
- -C config-file
- Use the specified configuration file config-file rather than the default imapd.conf(5) <#std-cyrusman-imapd.conf-5>.
- -v, --verbose
- Verbose mode.
- -f, --force
- Force operation. Without this flag sync_reset just bails out with an error. Principally here to try and prevent accidents with command autorepeat.
FILES
/etc/imapd.conf
