Thank you. Could you add an option for it to the official Horde source? I wouldn't modify my pear-based installation.

You already pointed at the code in question, you can change to return the IP address instead.

Excuse me for not mentioning: I would use Fail2ban to ban these IP-s. remoteHost() outputs hostnames into the error message. 2016-06-12T18:23:10+00:00 NOTICE: HORDE Guest user is not authorized for Mail (Host: proxy.szepe.net). [pid 463 on line 324 of "/home/web/public_html/pear/pear/php/Horde/Registry.php"] Could you help me to get the original IP?

This message doesn't even include a host name. Beside that, why would you want to ban such a use (as the ticket summary implies)? And finally: banning users isn't anything that Horde should do (beside blocking failed login attempts). IP blocking should happen on the server level.

Would it be possible to ban hosts? Now Horde logs only the hostname which is ambiguous unlike I address. "NOTICE: HORDE Guest user is not authorized for Horde" Could add an option to log only IP address? https://github.com/horde/horde/blob/7ba9e0a92a1ddc8d95d4447e6256cafcadc50ff1/framework/Core/lib/Horde/Registry.php#L2529-L2543 Thank you.
