Ah, so it doesn't work on SMTP side - doesn't rewrite links in messages when they arrive to your mailbox, like for example Proofpoint's "URLDefense" does - but processes the IMAP/POP3 client's connection and rewrites links on the fly as the client retrieves the messages. Maybe it's only me, but I see marginal usage for this tool. There are many other ways to access email messages residing on the server than IMAP/POP3. Webmail systems can directly access the messages on server, bypassing the IMAP middleman, as it is more effective, and email clients, especially in corporate or mobile environments, can connect to a server using other protocols (like MS Exchange/Outlook proprietary protocol, some kind of HTTP REST API - especially in mobile applications - or even a SQL database connection, in an environment where email server puts messages into a database and the client running on employee's desktop retrieves them over the corporate network, Lotus Domino style). I have the impression that usage of IMAP/POP3 is decreasing rapidly. Individual, "casual" email users have mostly switched to webmail, mobile and corporate users often use the proprietary options mentioned above. My view is that IMAP (not speaking of POP3, which seems completely outdated) is today used mostly by people who are tech-savvy enough to be aware of phishing danger and careful of what they click on. Maybe I'm wrong, however... Not speaking about the marginal old-school case when someone is reading the email directly by ssh-ing to the server and running a console-mode email client that accesses directly the message files in Maildirs, which is still my preferred way of reading email :) -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa [email protected] -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub." _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list [email protected] https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
