Yes, agreed.

I was thinking that it would not be hard to do, in regard of the
current code introduce by Jakob and Sergey.

static struct passwd *
pop3d_ip_virtual (const char *u)
{
  struct passwd *pw;

  if (getsockname(0, ...) < 0)
    {
      char *hostname;
      char *virtual
 ...
      /* Get our hostname base on the IP, and build a virtual user.  */
      asprintf (&virtual, "%s!%s", u, hostname);

      return pop3d_virtual (virtual); 
    }

  return NULL;
}  

But I may missing some stuff.
