There's one problem I can see about dbmail's last_login field, for use with POP before SMTP authentication methods..
Mainly, it doesn't store the last address the authenticator came from. Without that, POP-before-SMTP is almost useless, because once someone logs into POP, authenticated, then for ~5 minutes, or whatever time frame the timeout is, /anyone/ could send mail through the same account. This would be useful for supporting numerous amounts of MTA's, namely the one I use, exim, which could do an ACL query to: SELECT last_host WHERE last_login > (now() - '5 minutes'::INTERVAL)::datetime; For an automagic trusted-hosts adjustment based on the host that authenticated to POP within 5 minutes. -- Eric Renfro Myrddin Computers & Designs - CEO/President Sales: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fax: (775) 243-4535
