Hi,

For sure it's possible.

I use a setup with all user informations (including encrypted passwords) stored in a mysql database and have postfix (the MTA) as well as dovecot (the IMAP server) checking the password against that database.

My roundcube installation uses the password plugin to change password directly in the mysql database.

the trick is to have only one user repository for all your usage whatever backend is used (flat file, database, ldap or whatever).

regards,

Hello all!

A question about the password plugin. When I login to my

email-account

with roundcube, I connect to the service that runs on

port 143 and ask

there, if I may login, right? dovecot is running on

port 143 and looks

in his passwordfile and permits the login or does

not, right?

For sending email, sasldb is used on MTA-side to permit

sending or not.

So when I want to use the passwd-plugin with sasl,

it only changes the

passwd in the sasldb for sending email, the

password in the passwordfile

of dovecot is not changed and the user

must login with the password once

specified, right?

Is there a

way, to let the users change their password themselves without

requiering administrative intervention?

Kind regards

Andreas
