Description Robin Atwood 2013-04-02 12:14:38 UTC

In order to prevent dictionary attacks on my POP3 port I added the offending IP address to /etc/hosts.deny. However, dovecot needs to be built with the --with-libwrap parameter to enble support for this. See http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LoginProcess.  

Reproducible: Always




An addition file in /etc/dovecot/conf.d would be useful but maybe you have to ask upstream.
