.\" DESCRIPTION Section
.\"
.\"
.SH DESCRIPTION
Kolab Groupware command-line utilities that make rain go away.
.PP
The
.BR kolab (1)
utilities are of an administrative nature, meaning that actions will be executed with the highest level of privileges available. For example, listing the mailboxes a user is subscribed to logs on to IMAP as the Cyrus IMAP administrator (configured in the [cyrus-imap] section of
.BR kolab.conf (5)),
and authorize itself as the user before issuing the LSUB command.

The language associated with a user impacts the transliteration of their name components in to mail, alias, uid and other 7-bit ascii attributes. To see the full effect before applying this setting, use the Kolab Web Administration Panel.

.BI "transfer-mailbox " "mailbox imap-server"

.PP
.RS
In a Cyrus IMAP Murder environment, using LDAP attribute value 'mailHost', transfers a mailbox from one IMAP server to another IMAP server. The client that runs
.BR kolab (1)
MUST be able to connect to the current IMAP backend server in order for the transfer to succeed.
.PP
.BR NOTE :
In default Kolab Groupware deployments, the mailHost LDAP attribute will need to match the IMAP server FQDN the user's INBOX resides on. This command does not update the mailHost LDAP attribute value.
.PP
This command can be used to move a sub-folder to a different server (note that a separate quota root may need to be created), or to correct an environment out-of-sync.

.I mailbox
(if

is set to
.I delayed
in
.BR imapd.conf (5)).
If
.I target-mailbox
is specified, uses
.I target-mailbox
as the root folder to restore the previously deleted mailbox to.
Otherwise, restores the mailbox
.I mailbox
to its original location (from which it was deleted).

.SS SIEVE COMMANDS
.BR kolab (1)
includes a set of sub-commands for Sieve script management.
.TP
.BI "list " "user"
List the Sieve scripts for user
.IR user .
.PP
.RS
Lists the names of the Sieve scripts for user
.IR user ,
and indicates which script is activated (the script that is executed on LMTP mail delivery to the user's mailbox).
.PP
.BR NOTE :
This script does NOT check the syntax of each script, nor does it determine which scripts reside in the user's personal Sieve namespace but are not active AND not included in any other script. See the
.BR "kolab" "(1) " "sieve test"
.I user
command to get that information.
.RE
.TP
.BI "put " "user script-file " "[" "script-name" "]"
Add a new Sieve script with contents
.I script-file
under title
.I script-name
for user
.IR user .
If
.I script-name
is not specified, the basename of
.I script-file
is used.
.TP
.BI "refresh " "user"
Refresh the Sieve scripts for user
.IR user ,
using the Sieve script management conventions outlined in Kolab Enhancement Proposal #14 (https://wiki.kolab.org/KEP:14).
.TP
.BI "test " "user"
Test the Sieve scripts for user
.IR user .
.SS PATTERNS
Patterns matching mailboxes currently accept two wildcard types:
.TP
.B "%"
.PP
.RS
Used to match one level of folders.
.RE
.TP
.B "*"
.PP
.RS
Used to match all (sub-)levels of folders.
.RE
.SH EXAMPLES
.TP
Subscribe user john.doe@example.org to all mailboxes in the shared namespace:
.B kolab add-user-subscription john.doe@example.org shared/*@example.org
.TP
Create a new calendar folder "Private Calendar" for user john.doe@example.org:
.B kolab create-mailbox --metadata=/shared/vendor/kolab/folder-type,event 'user/john.doe/Private Calendar@example.org'
.PP
.RS
.BR NOTE :
The
.I mailbox
command-line parameter 'user/john.doe/Private Calendar@example.org' needs to be quoted, as it contains a space character.
.BR NOTE :
Setting folder metadata should adhere to RFC standards and, for Kolab Groupware deployments, Kolab Enhancement Proposal #17 (https://wiki.kolab.org/KEP:17).
For any given deployment, valid custom metadata paths are listed in
.BR /etc/imapd.annotations.conf .
.RE
.HP
List top-level user mailboxes for the example.org authorization realm:
.B "kolab list-mailboxes user/%@example.org"
.HP
List top-level mailboxes outside any particular authorization realm:
.B "kolab list-mailboxes user/%"
.HP
List mailboxes for user john.doe@example.org:
.B "kolab list-mailboxes user/john.doe/*@example.org"
.PP
.RS
.BR NOTE :
The mailbox user/john.doe@example.org itself is not included in the output for this example command.
