We can, but we wont. We don't have the need to block imap but not pop.

You have got the source code. I told you how you can do it. Unless you
become one of our paid customers you have to do it yourself.

After all this is free and Open Source Software, not Microsoft platinum
support. Actually we have developed this software for our own needs
on our own worktime and then decided to share it as-is with whoever
is able to download it.

I expect at least *some* effort from you in this matter like reading
the source at the places I pointed out to you. We have already paid
a long way that you can serve your soon paying customers.

Don't get me wrong, but from time to time this needs to be said. If
you want to participate in qmail-ldap's development effort you can
do it by either paying us to implement feature-x or by contributing
feature-y by yourself (as long as fits the style and design goals of
us).
