pop3 proxy

[Istvan Szukacs]

Hi!


Thank you.

This is the php code:


<?php
$username=$_SERVER["HTTP_AUTH_USER"];
$userpass=$_SERVER["HTTP_AUTH_PASS"];
$protocol=$_SERVER["HTTP_AUTH_PROTOCOL"];
$backend_port=110;
$server_ip="193.252.118.133";
pass($server_ip, $backend_port);

function pass($server,$port){
       header("Auth-Status: OK");
       header("Auth-Server: $server");
       header("Auth-Port: $port");
       exit;
}

?>

Regards,
Istvan
