MBSync

This role is designed to help you manage mbsync installations and settings easily. If you need to handle your user accounts and access to mail, this could be helpful.

Requirements

No requirements.

Role Variables

All settings are listed and explained in defaults/main.yml.

This role is meant to be used for a user account, so you need to provide real values for mbsync_user and mbsync_group. If the user you enter doesn't exist, the role will not work.

Dependencies

No dependencies.
