NAME
       syncnews	 -  synchronize	 IMAP  news mailboxes with active
       file

SYNOPSIS
       syncnews [ -C config-file ] active-file

DESCRIPTION
       Syncnews compares the list of IMAP news mailboxes with the
       news  active file.  News mailboxes which are not listed in
       the active file are removed.   Newsgroups  listed  in  the
       active  file  but not in the IMAP mailboxes file have IMAP
       mailboxes created.

       A newsgroup must have a status of ``y'', ``m'',	or  ``n''
       to be considered listed in the active file.

       Syncnews	 reads	its  configuration  options  out  of  the
       imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C.

OPTIONS
       -C config-file
	      Read configuration options from config-file.

FILES
       /etc/imapd.conf

BUGS
       If a newsgroup is listed in the active file, but does  not
       have  the  news	spool  directories created, syncnews will
       create those news spool directories in the process of cre-
       ating  the  IMAP	 mailbox.   The	 created  directories are
       likely to then have ownership and permissions that do  not
       permit the news server to write article files.
