7.1 Basic Operation
Popstore and MessageStore accounts are managed using four basic
commands: ADD, DELETE, MODIFY,
and SHOW. These four commands add accounts, remove
accounts, modify accounts, and display information about accounts. For
popstore accounts, two additional commands, COPY and
RENAME, can be used to create new accounts which look like
existing accounts and to change the name of an existing account.
When an account is created with the ADD command, you can
also specify various account settings such as the account password, the
name of the account's owner, and storage quotas. Once the account is
created, you can subsequently change these settings with the
MODIFY command.
Some of the account settings involve the use of values expressed in
units of storage or time. By default, the units of storage are kbytes
(1024 bytes), and the units of time are days. Within a session with the
utility, these units can be changed with the SET command;
see the command descriptions in Section 7.18 for details.
