I'd like to see tcp-wrappers.patch getting integrated into dovecot. I ported the original 1.0 patch to 1.1, but would prefer not to have to maintain another local patch.
As the name suggests, the patch adds libwrap support to dovecot. We use is to limit access from outside our network to secure (imaps/pop3s) protocols only and to exclude certain internal addresses from accessing dovecot in general.
Why this? I do this with iptables.
