Well, your method works, and I'm not sure if there's really any other
way to do it currently.. But I really don't want any vpopmail code outside
*db-vpopmail.c, so I think if people want to do this they'll need to patch.
And why are people still using pop3/imap-before-smtp instead of SMTP auth that
everything supports nowadays? (And in general nowadays I think vpopmail should
have been an external plugin since the beginning, but too much trouble for
everybody to change it now.)
