[imapproxy] ipmapproxy and redhat 7.3

[R. Michael Stephens]

If you run as root and don't modify the code  or don't define the really 
long constant that controsl the root chack the program exits.  It isn't 
just a warning it is an exit message.

Check out the main() routine.

The version I tried falt failed under any significant load (> 60 active 
connections), it looked like a memory leak.  We are now using an 
imap-proxy from university of pittsburgh which is more configurable and 
is working great.

Hope this is helpful,

In Service
