aerc-imap(5)
# NAME
aerc-imap - IMAP configuration for *aerc*(1)
# SYNOPSIS
aerc implements the IMAP protocol as specified by RFC 3501, with the following
IMAP extensions:
- IDLE (RFC 2177)
# CONFIGURATION
IMAP configuration may be done interactively with the :new-account command.
In accounts.conf (see *aerc-config*(5)), the following IMAP-specific options are
available:
*source*
imap[s][+insecure]://username[:password]@hostname[:port]
Remember that all fields must be URL encoded. The "@" symbol, when URL
encoded, is *%40*.
The meaning of the scheme component is:
*imap://*:
IMAP with STARTTLS
*imap+insecure://*:
IMAP without STARTTLS
*imaps*:
IMAP with TLS/SSL
*source_cred_cmd*
Specifies the command to run to get the password for the IMAP
account. This command will be run using `sh -c [command]`. If a
password is specified in the *source* option, the password will
take precedence over this command.
Example:
pass hostname/username
