Hi all,

I would like use Dovecot with tcpwrappers enabled to control remote access using hosts.deny and hosts.allow.

A google search gave this response from the listserve, but it is several years ago:

http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2013-April/089455.html

Are these instructions for configuring the conf files still valid? Mainly:

/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

login_access_sockets = tcpwrap

conf.d/10-master.conf:

service tcpwrap { unix_listener login/tcpwrap { group = $default_login_user mode = 0600 user = $default_login_user } }

Also:

Which version of Dovecot at least is needed to enable tcpwrappers?

Does the tcpwrap option need to be enabled during configure and build or is it already (and enabled in any distro binary repositories)?

And is it dovecot, imap, or imaps in the hosts.allow/deny file as the service name?

Thanks!

Kepa
