I suspect that popminpoll doesn't do what you think it does. See, the computer can't possibly know that the person logging in is your problem user until he's logged in, and then the damage is already done.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Darren Joy Sent: Tuesday, January 25, 2005 7:57 AM To: info-cyrus@lists.andrew.cmu.edu Subject: popminpoll problem I have a user who seems insistent on setting their pop3s poll time to 1 minute, and they have two accounts, so that's 2880 logins per day over pop3s, for just *one* user. Annoying, and clearly not doing any favours for memory usage. So, I think, "popminpoll", that's the answer. A setting of 5 (mins) should be ok I figure. So I set popminpoll to 5 and restart everything. Except, it doesn't seem to work. I can still see my problem user logging in twice every minute. Any ideas why? does popminpoll work only for pop3 and not pop3s?
