I would like to block whit hosts.deny all the pop3 and i will add a few hosts in hosts.allow who are allowed for pop3.

Perhaps you should have sent your hosts.deny entries along with your question. And remember that the first argument in this file is the program name, not the portname.

Is it also poselebel to do this whit iptables ? Can i see if your host ends whit *.ISP.nl you have access tot the pop server ?

No, domain named wildcarding isn't possible with iptables. (You'd have to determine each and every IP which should be allowed. Typically it's your local network and you can define a CIDR network for these hosts.) Peter
