Re: Bits from the uw-imap maintainer



Selon "Jaldhar H. Vyas" <jaldhar@debian.org>:
 | 
 | Following the upstream practice which is based on an IESG recommendation,
 | plaintext logins will be disabled on non-SSL/TLS connections.

IMHO, it would make sens to allow plaintext logins on loopback connections.

I don't think I'm the only one running uw-imapd running on my home machine,
using it locally (127.0.0.1) and I don't need nor want the SSL/TLS overhead;
it just wouldn't make sens.

Only my 2 cents,

PS: please CC a reply, I'm off the list.
