I never used PostLoginScripting before. I have concerns about  
additional serverload
if that scripting is executed for every pop3 login and every user. (  
and there are *many* )

That sounds I like additional scripting could be selective enabled via  
ExtraFields?
It' try to find documentation ...

I also thought about that.

Thanks for your constructive statement.
