iMap is a powerful yet easy-to-use mapping application for Mac OS X. iMap imports georeferenced data from databases or spreadsheets and maps it onto image or vector maps.

Thanks to its plug-in format, data can be represented as symbols, charts, images and more.

Database queries can be used to map only a subset of the record or to filter the records for a certain criterion. Maps can be exported as high-quality PDF files for cross-platform viewing.

Here are some key features of "iMap":

· Import your entire database or spreadsheet without losing information
· Perform map queries against the database
· Save the map and the data into one file
· Work with high-resolution maps
· Import .e00 files
· Add labels to records
· Choose between 24 symbols
· Map records based on their US ZIP code
· Measure distances between records
· Set the size of a record to be proportional to a field value
· Lookup the coordinates of any place on earth over the internet
· Write plug-ins to extend iMaps functionality.


Limitations:

· Unregistered watermark
· Nag screen.


Whats New in This Release:

· Importing records is now 6x faster and more reliable
· iMap can now export only selected records
· Added support for .eps map files

IMAP::Admin is a Perl module for basic IMAP server administration.

SYNOPSIS

use IMAP::Admin;

$imap = IMAP::Admin->new(Server => name.of.server.com,
Login => login_of_imap_administrator,
Password => password_of_imap_adminstrator,
Port => port# (143 is default),
Separator => ".", # default is a period
CRAM => 1, # off by default, can be 0,1,2
SSL => 1, # off by default
# and any of the SSL_ options from IO::Socket::SSL
);

$err = $imap->create("user.bob");
if ($err != 0) {
print "$imap->{Error}n";
}
if ($err != 0) {
print $imap->error;
}
$err = $imap->create("user.bob", "green");
$err = $imap->delete("user.bob");
$err = $imap->h_delete("user.bob");

$err = $imap->subscribe("user.bob");
$err = $imap->unsubscribe("user.bob");

$err = $imap->rename("bboard", "newbboard");

@quota = $imap->get_quotaroot("user.bob");
@quota = $imap->get_quota("user.bob");
$err = $imap->set_quota("user.bob", 10000);

@acl = $imap->get_acl("user.bob");
%acl = $imap->get_acl("user.bob");
$err = $imap->set_acl("user.bob", "admin", "lrswipdca", "joe", "lrs");
$err = $imap->delete_acl("user.bob", "joe", "admin");

@list = $imap->list("user.bob");
@list = $imap->list("user.b*");

$imap->{Capability} # this contains the Capabilities reply from the IMAP server

$imap->close; # close open imap connection

IMAP::Admin provides basic IMAP server adminstration. It provides functions for creating and deleting mailboxes and setting various information such as quotas and access rights.

Its interface should, in theory, work with any RFC compliant IMAP server, but I currently have only tested it against Carnegie Mellon Universitys Cyrus IMAP and Mirapoints IMAP servers. It does a CAPABILITY check for specific extensions to see if they are supported.

Operationally it opens a socket connection to the IMAP server and logs in with the supplied login and password. You then can call any of the functions to perform their associated operation.

Separator on the new call is the hiearchical separator used by the imap server. It is defaulted to a period ("/" might be another popular one).

CRAM on the new call will attempt to use CRAM-MD5 as the login type of choice. A value of 0 means off, 1 means on, 2 means on with fallback to login. *Note* this options requires these perl modules: Digest::MD5, Digest::HMAC, MIME::Base64

SSL on the new call will attempt to make an SSL connection to the imap server. It does not fallback to a regular connection if it fails. It is off by default. IO::Socket::SSL requires a ca certificate, a client certificate, and a client private key. By default these are in current_directory/certs, respectively named ca-cert.pem, client-cert.pem, and client-key.pem. The location of this can be overridden by setting SSL_ca_file, SSL_cert_file, and SSL_key_file (youll probably want to also set SSL_ca_path).

I generated my ca cert and ca key with openssl: openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout ca-key.pem -out ca-cert.pem
I generated my client key and cert with openssl: openssl req -new -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout client-key.pem -out req.pem -nodes openssl x509 -CA ca-cert.pem -CAkey ca-key.pem -req -in req.pem -out client-cert.pem -addtrust clientAuth -days 600

Setting up SSL Cyrus IMAP v 2.x (completely unofficial, but it worked for me) add these to your /etc/imapd.conf (remember to change /usr/local/cyrus/tls to wherever yours is) tls_ca_path: /usr/local/cyrus/tls tls_ca_file: /usr/local/cyrus/tls/ca-cert.pem tls_key_file: /usr/local/cyrus/tls/serv-key.pem tls_cert_file: /usr/local/cyrus/tls/serv-cert.pem
For my server key I used a self signed certificate: openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout serv-key.pem -out serv-cert.pem -nodes -extensions usr_cert (in openssl.cnf I have nsCertType set to server)
I also added this to my /etc/cyrus.conf, it shouldnt strictly be necessary as clients that are RFC2595 compliant can issue a STARTTLS to initiate the secure layer, but currently IMAP::Admin doesnt issue this command (in SERVICES section): imap2 cmd="imapd -s" listen="simap" prefork=0
where simap in /etc/services is: simap 993/tcp # IMAP over SSL

IMAP Search description
IMAP Search was designed to be a little that will do what Outlook & Outlook Express will not - search through your email Is your email on an IMAP server?

IMAP Search was designed to be a little tool that will do what Outlook & Outlook Express will not - search through your email.

IMAP Spam Begone is a script that scans an IMAP inbox for spam using SpamAssassin, moving any found to another folder. Unlike the normal mode of deployments for SpamAssassin, isbg does not need to be involved in mail delivery, and can run on completely different machines to where your mailbox actually is.

It has been filtering my work email, some of which comes from a legacy email address that is from a spam unfiltered system. I run it as a cronjob every 15 minutes, and have had it doing that for 6 months. I get about 500 spams a month. Many other users are using it for a various servers abd a variety of platforms.

There are no known outstanding bugs.

Here are some key features of "IMAP Spam Begone":

· Works with all common IMAP servers
· Works on Linux, MacOS X and Windows
· Can do IMAP over SSL
· Can remember your password
· Will work painlessly against multiple IMAP accounts and servers
· Is not involved in the mail delivery process, and so can run on any machine that can contact your IMAP server
· Highly configurable
· Sensible defaults so you dont have to do any configuring :-)

A Windows application that checks for new mail on one or more IMAP mail accounts. It uses the Windows system tray to display an icon that gives you easy access to its features. IMAP Notify can check for mail on your intranet or the Internet, and it can connect to the Internet using Windows Dial-up Networking. It can launch most e-mail clients likeMicrosoft Outlook and Qualcomm Eudora.

Localize IMAP Messages is an AppleScript that will in effect copy messages older than a date you choose from IMAP servers to equivalent local Entourage folders, and deletes the originals.

This is particularly useful as you approach the limits of your IMAP storage allocation of your ISP, company or university, but when you do not want to remove the messages from Entourage to text or other archives.

You can repeatedly copy messages to the same local folder in a parallel local hierarchy to your IMAP folders.

IMAP Proxy server is a caching IMAP proxy server. It was written to compensate for webmail clients that are unable to maintain persistent connections to an IMAP server. Most webmail clients need to log in to an IMAP server for nearly every single transaction.

This behaviour can cause tragic performance problems on the IMAP server. imapproxy tries to deal with this problem by leaving server connections open for a short time after a webmail client logs out.

When the webmail client connects again, imapproxy will determine if theres a cached connection available and reuse it if possible.

How does imapproxy keep track of which server connection is for which user?

Upon the first successful login to the real IMAP server (through the proxy), imapproxy fills in a little record that contains the username, an md5 digital signature of the password and the server socket descriptor thats being used.

After you log out and then log back in again, imapproxy just has to find a record that matches your username and password. These records are stored in a hash table (with the username being the hash key) in memory, so the lookups are pretty fast.

Can IMAP Proxy support multiple backend servers?

If you want IMAP Proxy to be able to proxy to multiple backend IMAP servers, you can run multiple instances of IMAP Proxy and make sure each instance is looking at a different configuration file.

Before you do this, take a look at perdition which appears to have been designed with this specific task in mind.
