Web Mail Servers

Operations ships with IMP/Horde Webmail.

IMP/Horde and its configuration files reside on the /usr/local/pem/vhosts/webmail directory.

IMP/Horde uses MySQL to keep its runtime configuration data. You must back up the following MySQL databases:

  • Horde
  • Imp
  • Kronolith
  • Turbo

Please refer to the MySQL database server documentation for a complete MySQL backup and recovery solution.

To determine the MySQL server that is used by IMP/Horde, execute the following command on the server, where IMP/Horde is installed:

grep ’hostspec’ /usr/local/pem/vhosts/webmail/horde-x.y.z/config/conf.php

where x.y.z is IMP/Horde version. The typical output of this command is:

[root@webmai3 root]# grep hostspec /usr/local/pem/vhosts/webmail/horde-3.1.2/config/conf.php
$conf['sql']['hostspec'] = '172.16.53.31'; [root@webmai3 root]#

In this example, the MySQL used by this IMP/Horde installation is located on the server with the IP address 172.16.53.31.
