dovecot - Mar 2009 - Seperate auth per protocol (pop3/imap)

Hi,

During discussions with the boss we've speculated about having users
having only specific services available. One of the ideas was to have
users being able to specify if they wanted POP3 or IMAP and whether we
could limit their access to one or the other server side.

We use MySQL for the userdb and passdb lookups at the moment. Is it
possible to specify separate auth files with different MySQL lookups
per protocol?

Thanks
Guy
