dovecot - Feb 2009 - Different protocols with different auth-types

Hello, 

I have installed dovecot with MySQL in which the users are stored. Now I
want to separate IMAP-Users from POP3-Users. So I added two columns to the
user table (imap / pop3) which indicates, whether the user has access to
IMAP or not.

In order to get dovecot recognizing this separation I put the auth-config
into the two protocol-sections and wrote two different
dovecot-sql.conf-files. In the dovecot-sql-pop3.conf the query searches for
pop3=1 and in the dovecot-sql-imap.conf it searches for imap=1. 

Done that, I expected POP3-Only-Users getting an error while trying to
connect to the IMAP-service. But dovecot first tries to authenticate for
IMAP and then uses the POP3-auth as fallback. How can I do this separation?

Thanks a lot, 

Morton

That doesn't work. But luckily for you, there's a simple way to
implement this: Replace the imap=1 or pop3=1 with %s=1. %s gets expanded
to imap or pop3.
