POP3Pot: a POP3 Honeypot

This is a honeypot simulating a POP3 e-mail server.

The honeypot does not emulate a full POP3 server after a successful login - it only records the IP of the attacker, as well as the username and password used, and the other commands used, if any, and returns a "bad login credentials" error.

Prerequisites

  • a working database server (only if you use an output plugin that outputs to a database - e.g., MySQL)

Usage

Check the Linux installation guide or the Windows installation guide for complete instructions on how to install, configure, and run the honeypot.
