DOVEADM-PROXY(1) Dovecot DOVEADM-PROXY(1)

NAME

doveadm-proxy - Handle Dovecot proxy connections

SYNOPSIS

doveadm [-Dv] [-f formatter] proxy command [OPTIONS] [ARGUMENTS]

DESCRIPTION

The doveadm proxy commands are used to list or kick active Dovecot proxy connections.

OPTIONS

Global doveadm(1) options:
-D
Enables verbosity and debug messages.
-f formatter
Specifies the formatter for formatting the output. Supported formatters are:
flow
prints each line with key=value pairs.
pager
prints each key: value pair on its own line and separates records with form feed character (^L).
tab
prints a table header followed by tab separated value lines.
table
prints a table header followed by adjusted value lines.
-o setting=value
Overrides the configuration setting from /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf and from the userdb with the given value. In order to override multiple settings, the -o option may be specified multiple times.
-v
Enables verbosity, including progress counter.

This command uses by default the table output formatter.

Command specific options:

-a ipc_socket_path
This option is used to specify an alternative socket. The option's argument is either an absolute path to a local UNIX domain socket, or a hostname and port (hostname:port), in order to connect a remote host via a TCP socket.

By default doveadm(1) will use the socket /var/run/dovecot/ipc. The socket may be located in another directory, when the default base_dir setting was overridden in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf.

ARGUMENTS

user
Is a user's login name. Depending on the configuration, a login name may be for example jane or john@example.com. It's also possible to use "*" and "?" wildcards (e.g. *@example.org).

COMMANDS

proxy kick

doveadm proxy kick [-a ipc_socket_path] user

Kick all the connections being proxied for the given user.

proxy list

doveadm proxy list [-a ipc_socket_path]

List all the users currently being proxied.

EXAMPLE
