# The mail/cyrus-imapd port

## cyrus-imapd-2.5.8 – Cyrus IMAP server

## Description

    The Cyrus IMAP server differs from other IMAP server implementations in
    that it is generally intended to be run on sealed servers, where normal
    users are not permitted to log in. The mailbox database is stored in
    parts of the filesystem that are private to the Cyrus IMAP system. All
    user access to mail is through the IMAP, POP3, or KPOP protocols.

    The private mailbox database design gives the server large advantages in
    efficiency, scalability, and administratability. Multiple concurrent
    read/write connections to the same mailbox are permitted. The server
    supports access control lists on mailboxes and storage quotas on mailbox
    hierarchies.
