Re: "horde imp" lock out after x failed login attempts

This is what I see in the logs when I put in the wrong password.
Sep  9 08:03:40 www001 HORDE: [imp] [login] Mail server denied authentication. [pid 14232 on line 730 of "/usr/local/www/sites/horde5.itctel.com/imp/lib/Imap.php"]
Sep  9 08:03:40 www001 HORDE: [horde] FAILED LOGIN for itc_mmartinell to horde (75.102.161.136) [pid 14232 on line 199 of "/usr/local/www/sites/horde5.itctel.com/login.php"]


I can try it with the wrong password as many times as I want, but it never seems to lock it out.  As soon as I put in the correct password, I immediately get logged in.  It does not appear to be locking the account for 5 minutes after 5 failed retries.

In this case I failed to login 10 times, receiving the above message every time.  As soon as I put in the correct password I immediately logged in without error.

What do your logs say when this happens?
