# kopano(7)

Kopano server overview.

## NAME

kopano - Kopano server overview.

## DESCRIPTION

Kopano is a full-featured e-mail and groupware solution, focused towards clients using the MAPI standard. The Kopano suite consists of the following parts:

kopano-server

The main server process, accepting client connections, and managing storage and retrieval of data from the database.

kopano-spooler

The outgoing e-mail spooler. This service makes sure that e-mails sent by clients are converted to internet e-mail and forwarded to an SMTP server.

kopano-dagent

The Kopano delivery agent is called by your MTA to deliver an incoming e-mail message into a user's inbox.

kopano-admin

The admin program can be started from the command line to perform various administrational tasks such add creating users, and managing groups.

kopano-monitor

The monitor server process monitors user stores for quota limits. When a user goes over the warning quota level, kopano-monitor will issue a warning e-mail.

kopano-gateway

The gateway server process enables POP3 and/or IMAP connectivity to the storage server. Users with other non-Outlook or webaccess clients can still retrieve their e-mail from the server.

kopano-passwd

The passwd program can be started from the command line to update the user password when the server is running with dbplugin.

kopano-fsck

The fsck program can be started from the command line to check and possibly fix broken items in your calendar or tasks folder.

kopano-backup

The backup tool creates an incremental dump of a store. The data can be restored by the same tool. This tool can be used as a brick-level-backup. From a performance point of view it might not make sense to be used as a disaster-recovery tool.

kopano-ical

The iCal/CalDAV gateway enables users to retrieve their own Kopano calendar using the iCalendar standard.

kopano-stats

A simple program that dumps some statistics the kopano-server program collects.

kopano-cfgchecker

This program tests for common configuration errors for a given config file.

kopano-search

The kopano-search daemon is used to index all messages for all users in the kopano-server. Indexing messages greatly enhances the search performance of the kopano-server.
