Package: roundcube-core
Version: 1.3.11+dfsg.1-1~deb10u1

Hello,

the imap retry patch added within bug 947320 locks my accounts when I enter
invalid password.

The problem is, that password is tried 6 times, this number is hardcoded.
After 5 times, the login gets locked out.

The original code does not retry after unsuccessful attempt, the retry can
be requested by plugins.

The patch should allow maximum number of atempts, or check for unsuccessful
logins and not retry those.
