My logs show results like:
in.pop3d[29979]: connect from chrisb@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
where "chrisb" is the username running the remote mail client, not necessarily
the "identity" or "sender" in the pop script. The IP address is the remote
IP address.
Maybe your logger just switches the username and IP fields around...
