I don't know about that, but what I'm asking is.. how many people are allowing IMAP/POP3 connections (with authentication via user/pw) over non-secure (non-SSL/TLS) connections? I wouldn't think there would be many nowadays, and that there would be less as time passes. If that assumption is true, then I would think proxying would be very common (at least within a host where the imap-login and imap processes are paired together doing SSL/TLS).
Yes, but that was the point. When proxying within a host you don't need DNS resolving.
My misunderstanding... That's what I get for skimming my e-mail! Sorry for the added noise. :)
