Hi there, We are trying to brute-force a POP3 server with SSL encryption. Brutus which was supposed to be the favorite tool does not support POP3 over SSL. Now we are trying to brute-force the server with Hydra but surprisingly Hydra does not support guessing technique but only dictionary attack. Any idea ?
