SHAREDINDEXINSTALL(8)

💖 SHAREDINDEXINSTALL(8) 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this one is short but it's important. this is the manual page for sharedindexinstall, section 8, straight outta the Debian GNU/Linux documentation set. no cap. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

sharedindexinstall — installs the shared index files 🗂️✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

sharedindexinstall

that's it. no flags, no arguments, no drama. she takes zero parameters and she serves anyway. main character energy fr fr. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea, bestie: sharedindexinstall grabs the shared index files from /etc/courier/shared.tmp/ and installs them into /etc/courier/shared/. that's the whole job. in from tmp, out to the real spot. slay. 💅

like, think of /etc/courier/shared.tmp/ as the fitting room and /etc/courier/shared/ as the stage. she's doing the wardrobe change for you. no notes. 🌈

now, if you want the full documentation on shared folders with courier-imap and sqwebmail — the whole deep lore, the extended universe — it lives right here:

/usr/share/doc/courier-base/README.sharedfolders.txt.gz

it's gzipped, so bring your zless or your zcat, iykyk. 🫶

ngl this page is tiny but the file behind it is not — go read the README if you're actually setting up shared folders. that's where the real info is at. 💖

👀 SEE ALSO 👀
