dovecot - Jul 2007 - fine-grained user authentication support

Hi,
I'm wondering if it's possible to have some users restricted to only  
login via POP3 or only IMAP (likewise for IMAPS/POP3S). Returning a  
particular field with the userdb sql query (protocols=imaps did not  
work), perhaps setting up a different passdb? Is this possible with  
dovecot?

Use %s variable in your SQL query. http://wiki.dovecot.org/

Ah, thanks, that should work nicely, is the full list of possibly  
substitution variables that are usable inside SQL queries anywhere on  
the wiki (my search skills probably fail me, I couldn't find the  
RestrictAccess page either before :)?
Also, does %s differentiate between secure and insecure connections  
with imaps and pop3s possibilities?
