[Dovecot] Best way to get login protocol (pop3/imap) in post-login script

Hi, all. I found doc here: http://wiki.dovecot.org/PostLoginScripting and use ${USER}, ${IP} to track last-login username and remote ip address, but how can i track the mail protocol it used? like pop3, pop3s, imap, imaps? Currently, i wrote shell script as post-login script, and use below command to get protocol: ---- $(basename ${MAIL_PLUGIN_DIR}) ---- But is it the best way to get it? Thanks very much. :) -- Best Regards.

[Dovecot] E-Mail Encryption
by Christian Felsing 01 Aug '09

Hello, I am new to Dovecot but installation was quite easy, so there is one more LDAP authenticated, Dovecot / Postfix mailbox online, but there is one question left: I would like to set up a configuration, which encrypts every user mail with a unique key. If user logs in, private key should be decrypted with user password and every mail user requests should be decrypted with users private key. If a mail comes in, it should be encrypted with users public key. That key pair should be used for that purpose only. Obviously a GnuPG plugin between deliver and rest of Dovecot is needed. best reagrds Christian
