[Dovecot] disconnect after too many errors?

[Peter Hessler]

There are a couple of jerks that are tying to dictionary attack my 
email server, and one of the vectors is pop3/imap logins.  Something I 
would like to do in dovecot, but can't seem to find, is the ability to 
disconnect after a certain number of errors.  The vast majority of my 
users (i.e. me) don't hand-type POP3 or IMAP transactions, but when we 
do, we know how to spell things properly.

Does dovecot have this?  A simiple look shows no.
