      <span class="command"><strong>makeimapaccess</strong></span> rebuilds the contents of the
      <code class="filename">@sysconfdir@/imapaccess.dat</code> database from the
      contents of the
      files in the <code class="filename">@sysconfdir@/imapaccess</code> directory.
      When the
      <span class="command"><strong>imapd</strong></span> script starts <span class="command"><strong>couriertcpd</strong></span>,
      the script specifies the
      <code class="filename">@sysconfdir@/imapaccess.dat</code> file to control
      access to
      the <span class="application">Courier</span> mail server's
      IMAP daemon. The <span class="command"><strong>makeimapaccess</strong></span> script
      must be
      run before any changes in the <code class="filename">@sysconfdir@/imapaccess</code>
      directory take effect.</p><p>

	<a class="ulink" href="couriertcpd.html" target="_top" shape="rect"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">couriertcpd</span>(8)</span></a> manual page
	describes the generic format of the access file.
	The access file specifies
	what should be done with connections from defined IP address ranges.
	The basic choices are to accept or reject the connection.
	Also, the generic format of the access file allows arbitrary environment
	variables to be set based on the connection's remote IP address,
	however the IMAP server does not use any special environment variables
	on its own.
