Version 1.4.15
Security Upgrade
Plugins - Lockout
Category: Logging in

This plugin allows you to create a list of users and/or domains that should be disallowed login access to SquirrelMail. It also allows you to block brute-force password guessing attacks, although please note that this will ONLY help fight such attacks in the SquirrelMail interface, and should really be implemented in your mail system's authentication backend.
