It is Roundcube that is actually connecting to Dovecot/Postfix and
receiving/sending mail, not the user's browser, so the connecting IP that Dovecot/Postfix gets is technically correct. No need to change it. On the other hand, user's browser is talking HTTP to Roundcube, and Roundcube knows
it's IP address, so Roundcube is the point where restrictions should be
enforced, not Dovecot/Postfix.

Agreed, dovecot doesnt know - nor care - if its kmail, evolution, thunderbird, outlook, RC, imapproxy, or some other client, it's not its job to care.

RC has rcguard which works well, and as mentioned by another poster there is always fail2ban.

Frankly, I don't see any problem that needs addressing, and I guess neither do the RC team if this is as is claimed a "long standing" issue for a small minority.

As to the anti privacy brigade, suck it up, we are network operators, if we want to know who they are, we can, just means we have to multitask looking at two logs, i mean FFS, how hard is that, you already do this tracking local spammers actions and then looking them up in CRM or radius, or some other database.

get over it.
