I have just reconfigured exim to run with the security = unprivileged
option as described here:
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-3.30/doc/html/spec_55.html#SEC922
This is working fine, with exim owning the mailboxes.
None of my local_parts have system accounts.
Now I find that the pop3 daemon I use, popa3d, will not allow delivery
without system accounts.
Can you recommend a pop3 server to use for this configuration?
There are a number which say that they do not require system accounts,
but I can't find any documentation for any of them which describes how
to set the uid for the pop3 server after authentication without an
account.
I have been looking at:
cyrus
cucipop
teapop
courier
I only manage mail in the hundreds per day so high performance is not a
requirement. I am much more interested in security then performance at
any rate.
Thanks,
Michael
