Actually even more amusing is pine in the ports tree in OpenBSD, it is marked as broken and by default you cannot compile it unless you edit a line out of the makefile =) It's amazing how bad a track record WU has (WU-IMAPD, WU-FTPD, Pine...).
The unfortunate history of security bugs of these products is well known, please let me however point out that: UW-imapd and pine are from UW = University of Washington WU-ftpd is from WU = Western University of St Louis (wustl) As far as I know, there is no relation between these products or their authors. Best regards, Lutz PS. WU-ftpd is by now maintained by an independent group no longer related to wustl. -- Lutz Jaenicke Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE BTU Cottbus http://www.aet.TU-Cottbus.DE/personen/jaenicke/ Lehrstuhl Allgemeine Elektrotechnik Tel. +49 355 69-4129 Universitaetsplatz 3-4, D-03044 Cottbus Fax. +49 355 69-4153
