Calendar.Events table The Calendar.Events table contains a record of all the events in calendars managed by VPOP3. An 'event' is an iCalendar event. Note that if an event is a recurring series, there will only be one 'event' in the database, not one event per instance of the recurrence.

Database -> Message Store Tab

Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) — 2018-11-14T10:45:49+00:00

Database -> Message Store Tab This tab says how VPOP3 handles its message store Message Store The Delay while moving messages setting tells VPOP3 how quickly to import messages into the new database structure if it was upgraded from version 2.x or earlier. Usually this is OK to be left as it is, but if there is some special requirement to import the messages more quickly, you can decrease this number, but that will increase the load on the server.

POP3 Mail Collection

POP3 Mail Collection POP3 Mail Collection is when VPOP3 will collect mail from an external POP3 mailbox - for instance, from an Internet Provider.

SMTP Server -> IDS/IPS The IDS/IPS tab lets you set logging and automatic blocking parameters for the IDS (Intrusion Detection System) and IPS (Intrusion Prevention System) component of the SMTP server. SMTP servers are regularly attacked, both by incoming mail attacks (spam/viruses etc) and relay attacks (by spammers and other malware distributors trying to send mail through them). Because of this, there is a system in VPOP3 which will track attack attempts on the SMTP service and can automat…

Groups In VPOP3 a 'group' is mainly an administrative feature. If you only wish to have a list of email addresses to send messages to under one address, you should use the 'List' feature instead. The main function of Groups is to let you set certain user attributes for a whole group of users at once.

Lua Scripting

Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) — 2026-03-26T23:49:01+00:00

Lua Scripting Lua is a simple scripting programming language often used for embedding in other applications. VPOP3 uses it to customise behaviour in places where most people will be happy with the default behaviour, but occasionally people will want to do something more complicated. Rather than having lots of extra options to complicate things for most users, we have opted to go for a more flexible scripting facility.

Autoresponder

Autoresponder An autoresponder is a way of automatically replying to messages as they arrive in a user's mailbox. In VPOP3, an incoming message must arrive in a user's mailbox for the autoresponder to trigger. If you use forwards, assistants, mappings, etc to divert a message before it arrives in the mailbox, the autoresponder will never trigger. If you want to use an autoresponder, but not keep the original message, then make sure the message arrives in the mailbox (eg by using an 'Assistant'…
