Hi,

With POP3 TLS, the time to retrieve mail is too long.

In debugging and connection logging, I see that perdition is waiting 3 seconds to send the response to AUTH request :

Dec 22 15:54:06 logua2 perdition[23793]: SELF:   "UIDL\r\nUSER\r\nSTLS\r\n.\r\n"
Dec 22 15:54:06 logua2 perdition[23793]: CLIENT: "STLS\r\n"
Dec 22 15:54:06 logua2 perdition[23793]: SELF:   "+OK Begin TLS negotiation, mate\r\n"
Dec 22 15:54:07 logua2 perdition[23793]: SSL connection using AES256-SHA
Dec 22 15:54:07 logua2 perdition[23793]: CLIENT: "AUTH\r\n"
Dec 22 15:54:10 logua2 perdition[23793]: SELF:   "-ERR Mate, the command must be one of CAPA, USER, PASS or QUIT\r\n"
Dec 22 15:54:10 logua2 perdition[23793]: CLIENT: "CAPA\r\n"
Dec 22 15:54:10 logua2 perdition[23793]: SELF:   "+OK Capability list follows, mate\r\n"
Dec 22 15:54:10 logua2 perdition[23793]: SELF:   "UIDL\r\nUSER\r\n.\r\n"

3 secondes between CLIENT AUTH and the -ERR response of perdition...
It's too long for the users (for example, Thunderbird with TLS).

I'm tracing the process (strace) and I see a nanosleep 3 for a child process.

In the source and include perdition, I see :
#define PERDITION_AUTH_FAIL_SLEEP 3
sleep(PERDITION_AUTH_FAIL_SLEEP);

Is there a bad effect to put 0 value to this define ?

Thanks
Dominique
