[Dovecot] pop-before-smtp Dovecot pattern
Hi,
Having some problems with the default pattern in the pop-before-smtp.pl.conf file for dovecot. Also the one off the dovecot wiki doesn't seem to work and since I can't seem to figure out how these patterns work I hoping someone could help me out with a custom pattern. This is what my mail log looks like:
Apr 8 23:30:40 nemesis dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<bjorn>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:203.109.208.111, lip=::ffff:192.168.0.253
Any help would be much appreciated

Use SMTP AUTH, it's simple enough with most software nowadays, and forget about such {POP|IMAP}-before-SMTP setups. These are insecure - think mail viruses and/or dynamic IP.
