tcp wrappers and webmail

That is expected behavior. tcpserver spawns another instance of itself to handle the communication for a specific connection request. (up to the maximum specified by the -c option - default is 40). On Wed, 2 Jun 1999, [iso-8859-1] "Günthner, Ralf" wrote: No tcpserver entry in the rc script!
