Hi,
We're need a IMAP product that uses Maildir's and we'd like to
authenticate using our own hacked checkpassword.
I've read in the archives that courier-imap uses Maildirs, but can it
use checkpassword for authentication or will I need something
like that mentioned below and wrap
I concur. We do this often. It saves me from the marketing department's
requests to let everyone know about "great new features." There's no need
to mail to someone who never reads their mail. This keeps you from that
hassle.

Greetings,
I know I cannot block mail that is coming from because
of course I would be preventing bounces from coming in, but
lately I've been getting hit with spam sent to multiple users
disguised as a bounce. I've tried putting that IP in my
tcprules file (bad-guy-IP:deny) but still the
ftp works just fine under tcpserver.
I'd imagine telnet does too.
mike.
You don't have to choose between inetd and tcpserver;
you can use them both.
Use inetd for services like ident and ftpd and telnet, and
use tcpserver for SMTP and POP and so forth. tcpserver
doesn't prevent inetd

it made it to the list.

Just in case any of you decides to block those

until they are patched and want to give the patch
