I just want to check my understanding here:

couriertcpd calls imaplogin to authenticate.
If imaplogin is satisfied it calls "imapd Maildir"

So imapd isn't a daemon but rather called each time? Does it re-read
it's config each time?

What I am trying to get at is, if the IMAP_EMTPYTRASH variable was
changed to something like

IMAP_EMPTYTRASH=`getUserTrashSettings`

would it call that program for each connection?

I also guess that imapd is called under the user's name?


Just trying to get things sorted in my head.

I always try to go the extra mile at work, but my boss always finds me
and brings me back.
