# Cyrus IMAP

# sync_reset

Account reset utility. DANGER.

## Synopsis

    sync_reset [ -C config-file ] [ -v ] [ -f ]

## Description

sync_reset is a small utility program to destroy user accounts on a system. The only safeguard which is in place is the obligatory force option.

sync_reset reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C.

## Options

`-C` `config-file`

  Use the specified configuration file config-file rather than the default imapd.conf(5).

`-v````,` `--verbose```

  Verbose mode.

`-f````,` `--force```

  Force operation. Without this flag sync_reset just bails out with an error. Principally here to try and prevent accidents with command autorepeat.

## Files

/etc/imapd.conf
