piperino Hello What would be the proper way to disable pop3 globally and persistent. I’ve found lines in dovecot conf can be commented out but not sure if this is the correct way Thank you J.
esackbauer Don’t change the dovecot conf, because then it probably wouldnt survive an update. Either block it at firewall level if you have one in front of mailcow. Or configure the POP ports to something non-standard and hard to guess, e.g. 45223. And additionaly - in Mailbox configuration - you can remove the right for users to access via POP.
gorby I guess I found a simpler way : In mailcow.conf, just add 127.0.0.1: before the ports assigned to POP protocol : POP_PORT=127.0.0.1:110 POPS_PORT=127.0.0.1:995 It will bind these ports locally and they won’t be exposed externally. – Léo.
