I need to limit the users that can login in an IP number, is that posible with dovecot 1.0? (i.e. only these users can login from the Internet) Or a new plugin should be written? It is complicated to do that?
Might look at using perdition to front end your imap sessions or wrapping the imap shell script/batch file to a degree (exporting RIP to the environment would be great.
What sort of response would the imap server give? Obviously you allow all sessions to connect else you would handle this with iptables, and when the user/pass/cert is validated and you have the user:rip what response would you give the client? Any security issues are moot since the user/pass is over the wire in order to determine if they have access.
