6.3 IMP Webmail Administration
IMP (Internet Messaging Program) Webmail provides access to IMAP and POP3 mail accounts
through a Web interface. Users with an IMAP or POP3 account on a system accessible from the
IMP program can view their mail from anywhere they have Web access.
IMP is installed by the IAEIMP subset, which requires a public instanceSecure Web Server of
the (IAEAPCH) and PostgreSQL (IAEPSQL). In addition, you should have an IMAP server
configured (may be the same system running IMP). To view the IMP pages, users must have a
browser capable of running JavaScript and that allows cookies.
The IMP installation is composed of three parts: the Horde Application framework, the Turba
addressbook/contact management program, and IMP Webmail. Configuration files for the three
parts are located in three directories, /usr/internet/horde/config,
/usr/internet/horde/imp/config, and /usr/internet/horde/turba/config. These
files will be saved during an upgrade installation of the IAEIMP subset.
Note:
The number of users that IMP can serve is partially limited by your configuration of PostgreSQL.
If you would like to serve a large number of users with IMP, you might need to increase the
number of processes that PostgreSQL's postmaster is allowed to manage. For information on
increasing the number of processes, see Section 17.6: Scaling PostgreSQL.
