Re: Interesting phenomenom with popbsmtpd/engarde
Hello Taylor,
I read through the code, and it turns out that it is an interpretation
problem. Here is the log entry again, with its timestamp, and the
subsequent processing:
> popbsmtpd: INPUT DATA: "Dec 13 02:03:19 puzi spop3[27632]: Login
> user=taylor host=localhost [127.0.0.1] nmsgs=1/1"

What this is telling us is "I woke up at 02:03:19 to look for expired
logins. Timeout is 120 minutes, so anybody who logged in BEFORE 00:03:19
will have their access revoked."
I read your note, and also took your interpretation of it, so at some
remove in time my decisions while writing that part look odd. The next
time I make a change to the code, I will consider how to clarify this.
In the meantime, everything is working as intended, so you should be good
to go.
Thanks for pointing this out to me, and I will send you a note when the
next version is ready. By then, I should have a mailing list set up as
well.
Cheers,
Marcus Redivo
