If i try to connect as root (dovecto 1.0) with wrong password doveco exit with an auth error
robyt:~# telnet dns pop3 Trying x.x.x.x Connected to dns. Escape character is '^]'. +OK Dovecot ready. user root +OK pass [wrong] -ERR Authentication failed.
but if the password is correct dovecot exit but with another error:
user root +OK pass [correct] -ERR [IN-USE] Internal login failure. Refer to server log for more information. Connection closed by foreign host. robyt:~#
Why dovecot don't close the connection at user root? With this system i may know the root password..
