to run properly you must set proto=udp in its cyrus.conf
services entry. prefork=1 is also recommended.

.B Notifyd
reads its configuration options out of the
.IR imapd.conf (5)
file unless specified otherwise by \fB-C\fR.
The

option is used to specify the Unix domain socket to listen on for
notifications.
