Mysql, Courier-Imap and POP - make them listen to localhost
-MYSQL-
Edit the the file /etc/my.cnf and add "bind-address = 127.0.0.1" with out the quote, and will look like that below....
[mysqld] datadir=/var/lib/mysql socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock # Default to using old password format for compatibility with mysql 3.x # clients (those using the mysqlclient10 compatibility package). old_passwords=1
Edit the file that can be located @ /usr/lib/courier-imap/etc. Those files are, for IMAP, imapd and imapd-ssl, for POP3, pop3d and pop3d-ssl. Make sure to change the entry that contains
##NAME: ADDRESS:0 # # Address to listen on, can be set to a single IP address. # ADDRESS=127.0.0.1
#ADDRESS=0
the default is ADDRESS=0, I just change 0 (zero) to 127.0.0.1 so that it is not accessible outside, do this only if you dont need your IMAP or POP3 server to be accessible from outside, so its applicable if you use a web based email client like that of squirrel mail, you can set it up this way for safety purposes...
