There are a couple of jerks that are tying to dictionary attack my
email server, and one of the vectors is pop3/imap logins. Something I
would like to do in dovecot, but can't seem to find, is the ability to
disconnect after a certain number of errors. The vast majority of my
users (i.e. me) don't hand-type POP3 or IMAP transactions, but when we
do, we know how to spell things properly.
Does dovecot have this? A simiple look shows no.

scares the shit out of me.
