POP is a different protcol from either local or remote email
delivery. And a different protocol from smtp reception.

If you took the time to read the documentation on tcpserver
and it's associated allow/deny methodology, you will recognize
that it is based on IP addresses. Which implies a fundamental
weakness in DNS poisoning. Which is a different discussion.
I'm assuming you mean "i'address" means IP addresses. if you
can not limit access to your service handled by a tcpserver
process, you have not investigated the -x option and all
it entails.
Please do not bother the list with questions that can
easily be answered by careful examination of available
documentation.
