[squid-users] POP3 authentification

Hallo, squid-users,

I've tried the POP3 authentification with the script "pop3.pl" in
"helpers/basic_auth/POP3" (written by Henrik Nordstrom) - it didn't
work.

Many error messages in /var/log/warn, telling

Nov 26 09:14:58 Arktur squid[2157]: Starting Squid Cache version 3.1.8

Nov 26 09:15:07 Arktur squid[1928]: Exiting due to repeated, frequent failures

Changing to

        squidauth.py (by POP3)
or
        squidauth.py (by IMAP)

(see "http://lateral.netmanagers.com.ar/stories/6.html")

solved the problem.

Maybe you should add the Python scripts in "helpers/basic_auth/POP3".

Viele Gruesse!
