If this is a security issue, please reassign to the 'Fedora Legacy' product in bugzilla. Please note that Legacy security update support for these products will stop on December 31st, 2006. If this is not a security issue, please check if this issue is still present in a current Fedora Core release. If so, please change the product and version to match, and check the box indicating that the requested information has been provided. If you are currently still running Red Hat Linux 7.3 or 9, please note that Fedora Legacy security update support for these products will stop on December 31st, 2006. You are strongly advised to upgrade to a current Fedora Core release or Red Hat Enterprise Linux or comparable.

Any bug still open against Red Hat Linux 7.3 or 9 at the end of 2006 will be closed 'CANTFIX'.

We thank you for your help, and apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point.
I hoped, this bug was fixed since 2002, but testing this now in FC5 I found the issue still exists - will change release: Aug 5 10:52:31 gatemuc imapd[1868]: Login user=peter host=[NON-IPv4] Aug 5 10:52:38 gatemuc imapd[1868]: Logout user=peter host=[NON-IPv4] Used xinetd config: service imap { socket_type = stream wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/imapd log_on_success += HOST DURATION log_on_failure += HOST disable = no flags = IPv6 }
Tested version: uw-imap-2004g-4.fc5.2
Testing uw-imap-2006g-2.fc6 I found, that this issue is finally solved now: Apr 11 14:20:15 s xinetd[2037]: START: pop3 pid=5331 from=::ffff:127.0.0.1 Apr 11 14:20:25 s xinetd[2037]: EXIT: pop3 status=0 pid=5331 duration=10(sec) Apr 11 14:20:29 s xinetd[2037]: START: pop3 pid=5333 from=::1 Apr 11 14:20:38 s xinetd[2037]: EXIT: pop3 status=0 pid=5333 duration=9(sec) So this bug can be closed now.
Closing the bug as requested by the bug reporter.
