I've Looked over the list of Auth methods that dovecot can use But i didn't see a option for a custom auth option. Would it be possible to add in a way for dovecot to call a script to check a users login info. have it able to retun the the homedir,gid/uid, and weather or not the password matched. -- Chris L.
