[Dovecot] Dovecot for POP3S proxying

[Gilles Albusac]

Thanks a lot for your answer.

Dovecot is already installed in my architecture and I just would like to 
know how to configure Dovecot for POP3S proxying with authentication.

For security reasons I prefer to install as little as possible binary (see 
vulnerability 2011 - remote exploit - STUNNEL).

Regards.

Unless I'm missing something with your request, you don't need dovecot.
Any ssl proxy can do that for you, such as stunnel
(http://www.stunnel.org/). We use the hardware ssl termination on our
load balancers for pop3s, imaps, and smtps.
