restricting user access ?

[Jakob Curdes]

Hello,

maybe the question is trivial or misplaced in this forum; if so I would be grateful if somebody points me in the right direction.

I want to access access to out (UW) imap server on a per-user basis from the "outside"; i.e. when accessing it form "anywhere". The aim is to run an imap server with unrestricted access on the internal net while allowing SSL access to certain users only via the external network connection. I could use a second passwd file or so; but I wanted to check if there is already a solution out there. (I can restrict access with inetd on a network basis, but then I still have users with their first name set as their password which never ever use the external connection).

Any ideas ?

Yours, Jakob Curdes
