Dear list, First of all, I am French so excuse my bad english. I am currently using dovecot proxy feature, using sql backend. I "proxy" the imap/pop requests to another server, let's say server2. On server2, I use a script to keep up to date a "pop before smtp auth" database. I used mail_executable = /path/to/this/script.sh ... My problem is: the $IP environment variable on server2 is the proxy's IP. How could I give a variable from proxy to server2, or simply get the real client public IP ? Thanks a lot in advance for your answers Pierre. PS: let me also thank very much dovecot developers and community !
Hi List, Sorry to bother you again but nobody would have any solution ? I just want to get real IP on a dovecot behind a dovecot proxy. I am using dovecot 1.2.4 but can change version if a solution exists.

Ok, found what happens I only catch public IP when using imap, not pop3. Any way to catch public IP using pop3 as well ?
