To configure the Multiplexor, you must manually edit the configuration parameters in the Multiplexor configuration files, which are listed below in Table 5–2.

Table 5–2 Messaging Multiplexor Configuration Files

File  

Description  

PopProxyAService.cfg

Configuration file specifying configuration variables used for POP services. 

PopProxyAService-def.cfg

POP services configuration template. If the PopProxyAService.cfg file does not exist, the PopProxyAService-def.cfg template is copied to create a new PopProxyAService.cfg file.

ImapProxyAService.cfg

Configuration file specifying configuration variables used for IMAP services. 

ImapProxyAService-def.cfg

IMAP services configuration template. If the ImapProxyAService.cfg file does not exist, the ImapProxyAService-def.cfg template is copied to create a new ImapProxyAService.cfg file.

AService.cfg

Configuration file specifying which services to start and a few options shared by both POP and IMAP services. 

AService-def.cfg

Configuration template specifying which services to start and a few options shared by both POP and IMAP services. If the AService.cfg file does not exist, the AService-def.cfg template is copied to create a new AService.cfg file.

SmtpProxyAService.cfg

Optional configuration file specifying configuration variables used for SMTP proxy services. Required if you enable POP before SMTP; useful for maximizing support for SSL hardware even if POP before SMTP is not enabled. For more information on POP before SMTP, see the .

SmtpProxyAService-def.cfg

Configuration template specifying configuration variables used for SMTP proxy services. If the SmtpProxyAService.cfg file does not exist, the SmtpProxyAService-def.cfg template is copied to create a new SmtpProxyAService.cfg file.

As an example, the LogDir and LogLevel parameters can be found in all configuration files. In ImapProxyAService.cfg, they are used to specify logging parameters for IMAP-related events; similarly, these parameters in PopProxyAService.cfg are used to configure logging parameters for POP-related events. In AService.cfg, however, LogDir and LogLevel are used for logging MMP-wide failures, such as the failure to start a POP or IMAP service.

The following configuration parameters are defined in the AService.cfg file:

For descriptions of these parameters, see Multiplexor Configuration Parameters.

The Multiplexor configuration files are stored in the msg_svr_base/mmp-hostname directory, where msg_svr_base is the directory where you installed the Messaging Server and mmp-hostname is the subdirectory named after the MMP instance.
