Hi,
One or 2 months ago there were some discussions concerning possible
vulnerabilities in POPd (+ a suggestion for a "safe" server). I wonder
whether these (or any other) vulnerabilities are known to exist in IMAP
(specifically the version available from the uni. of Washington, home of
"pine"). I did check that a "simple" simulated crack fails - after 3 bad
pw's the connection is closed and one has to reconnect.
