Citadel Core
SYNOPSIS
citserver [-lLogFacility] [-d] [-f] [-D] [-tTraceFile] [-xLogLevel] [-hHomeDir]
DESCRIPTION
Citadel (the binary name is citserver) is the core of the Citadel Suite. It provides Data-storage and Connection-oriented protocols like IMAP/POP/SMTP. Citserver will usualy be spawned via /etc/init.d or inittab. Unless using the -h option you shouldn't run several instances at once.
OPTIONS

| -D | print the directories the server would access to stderr on startup |
| -t[TraceFile] | Send log messages to a file instead of syslog |
| -x[LogLevel] | Verbosity level of logging (0 to 9) |
