Description Mark Silinio 2006-07-04 08:49:19 UTC
pop3.proxy is a proxy server for the POP3 protocol. Usually it's used on a firewall between a client and a POP3 server taking care that both sides talk POP3 protocol as described in RFC 1939.

There are some additional features beside normal proxying. pop3.proxy can

    * grant or deny access based on an external access control program which receives some POP3 session information.

    * be used with smtp.proxy to implement POP3 before SMTP.

    * feed e-mails into a local clamav daemon checking the e-mails for viruses before passing them to the client. Read the setup hint.

(this is an automated message based on filtering criteria that matched this bug)
'EBUILD' is in the KEYWORDS which should mean that there is a ebuild attached 
to this bug.
This bug is assigned to maintainer-wanted which means that it is not in the 
main tree.
Heuristics show that no Gentoo developer has commented on your ebuild.

Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild 
submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely
manner. There are simply too many new packages.

Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The 
sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to 
commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry 
into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this 
and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =)

Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. 
We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. 

Thanks,
On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team,
Jeremy.
