dovecot - Jun 2004 - Scripting

You metioned previosely that one can do character translation with postgress

with mysql you can also do so but can use it as the table name

Is there anyway to write something outside dovecot to do the lookup in say c++
?
Are you ready for Telkom's 10-digit dialling? To find out how this will
affect your Internet connection in the not too distant future, go to

Yes: select password from translate('%d', '.', '_')
where userid = '%n';

"can't"? right, mysql has replace() but it can't be used in
same way.

I'm not sure what you're thinking.. You still want the password from
mysql, but without patching Dovecot sources? Maybe with PAM and
(probably patched) pam_mysql module.
