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.
I suspect you've misread the question ;)
I don't think so. Matt is correct, the server can't refuse the connection until after the user has successfully authenticated. To the client, it looks like authentication has failed (a failure to the PASS, APOP or AUTH commands), but internally to the server the authentication was successful and the user's INBOX header read (to get the last login time), which is why the server logs the authentication.
popminpoll works as expected on my 2.3 install.
