Dovecot under brute force attack - nice attacker
Hi List, 
optimizing the configuration on one of our servers (which was
hit by a brute force attack on dovecot) showed an odd behavior. 
The short story:
On one of our servers an attacker did a brute force 
attack on dovecot (pop3). 
Since the attacker closed and reopened the connection 
after every user/password combination the logs showed 
many lines like this:
dovecot: pop3-login: Aborted
