Fires when new user is connecting to server.
Syntax
-
Private Sub
object_Connecting(User,
Action)
The Connecting Event syntax has these parts:
object |
A wodPop3Server
object. |
User |
A Pop3User object.
Reference to user who wants to connect to
wodPop3Server. |
Action |
A Pop3Actions
enumeration, as described in settings. Return value you
should set to either Allow or Deny to
determine if user is allowed to attempt to login. |
Settings
-
The settings for Action are:
|
Deny |
0 |
Deny execution of the
action. |
|
Allow |
1 |
Allow to execute
action. |
Remarks
-
At the time this event is fired, no commands are entered
by user. Only his Hostname and
TimeConnected
properties are known to wodPop3Server. Server will fire
this event so you can decide if you will let user access
your server at all.
This is very handy if you want to perform IP filter
checking on your server, thus allowing only specific range
of IP addresses to access server. After you check
user's Hostname property, set Action = Allow to let him continue
using the server, or Action =
Deny to close connection without any response made
by your server. You can prevent potential hackers or
attackers this way.
