How I should call daemon in hosts.deny file to deny access from some ip or network? Or it can be do by dovecot itself?

man iptables?

or man hosts.deny ... if you are running tcpd as tcp-wrapper.

dovecot doesnt support tcpd.h

Does that mean that a line like imap stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/local/libexec/imap-login in /etc/inetd.conf will not make dovecot be "secured" by tcpd?

I found some mails in the archives dealing with this stuff, but maybe didn't get the message completely...

Regards, Christian
