# 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|+oauthbearer]://username[:password]@hostname[:port]?[:oauth2_params]
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
*imaps+oauthbearer://*
|
|
IMAP with TLS/SSL using OAUTHBEARER Authentication
|
|
|
|
*oauth2_params:*
|
|
|
|
If specified, the configured password is used as an refresh token that
|
|
is exchanged with an access token
|
|
|
|
- token_endpoint (required)
|
|
- client_id (optional)
|
|
- client_secret (optional)
|
|
- scope (optional)
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
imaps+oauthbearer://...?token_endpoint=https://...&client_id=
|
|
|
|
*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
|
|
|
|
*connection-timeout*
|
|
Maximum delay to establish a connection to the IMAP server. See
|
|
https://pkg.go.dev/time#ParseDuration.
|
|
|
|
Default: 30s
|
|
|
|
*keepalive-period*
|
|
The interval between the last data packet sent (simple ACKs are not
|
|
considered data) and the first keepalive probe. After the connection is
|
|
marked to need keepalive, this counter is not used any further. See
|
|
https://pkg.go.dev/time#ParseDuration.
|
|
|
|
By default, the system tcp socket settings are used.
|
|
|
|
*keepalive-probes*
|
|
The number of unacknowledged probes to send before considering the
|
|
connection dead and notifying the application layer.
|
|
|
|
By default, the system tcp socket settings are used.
|
|
If keepalive-period is specified, this option defaults to 3 probes.
|
|
|
|
This option is only supported on linux. On other platforms, it will be
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|
|
*keepalive-interval*
|
|
The interval between subsequential keepalive probes, regardless of what
|
|
the connection has exchanged in the meantime. Fractional seconds are
|
|
truncated.
|
|
|
|
By default, the system tcp socket settings are used.
|
|
If keepalive-period is specified, this option defaults to 3s.
|
|
|
|
This option is only supported on linux. On other platforms, it will be
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|
|
*check-mail-include*
|
|
Specifies the comma separated list of folders to include when checking for
|
|
new mail with *check-mail*. Names prefixed with ~ are interpreted as regular
|
|
expressions.
|
|
|
|
Default: all folders
|
|
|
|
*check-mail-exclude*
|
|
Specifies the comma separated list of folders to exclude when checking for
|
|
new mail with *check-mail*. Names prefixed with ~ are interpreted as regular
|
|
expressions.
|
|
Note that this overrides anything from *check-mail-include*.
|
|
|
|
Default: no folders
