Dovecot has 1 minute and no-one's ever complained about that either. But
|
|
I hadn't thought too much about that value, I guess I'll increase it to
|
|
3 minutes as well.

|
|
I think most people use clients which save the password so this isn't an
|
|
issue for more than a couple of people, and those are probably fast
|
|
enough typers anyway since they're willing to write their password every
|
|
time.
