commands in the context of the user running the application.

implementation where the switch from plaintext to TLS is implemented below the
application's I/O buffering layer, which could allow attackers to inject
commands during the  plaintext phase of the protocol via man-in-the-middle
attacks.";

For updates refer to http://www.imailserver.com/";
