Just wondering if there is an easy way to have dovecot do a blacklist lookup as a negative authentication so that if the IP is on a blacklist then authentification fails even if they get the password right. If this works I have a blacklist everyone can use.

Just wondering if there's an open source Linux alternative to MS Exchange so that all the features of outlook work?

Here's a kind of "outside the box" thought. Why not extend the IMAP protocol to send email? Instead of having to use SMTP if an addition were made to the IMAP protocol then IMAP could transport outgoing mail to the server the same way it moves messages to the server. On the server end Dovecot would deliver outgoing email to the host MTA via localhost:25. The advantage would be

...ks as well. Or wouldn't you like to do some of the fancy tricks that Microsoft Exchange Servers do without having to use Exchange?

Is it possible to run a bash script for authentication where a 0 exit code indicates success and a non-zero is failure? What I'm trying to do is create a shadow IMAP server that authenticates against a different server. That way my server will use the same passwords as an existing server. So what I would need is for dovecot to pass the username and password to my script, I attempt to log

...ke to use it for is an outgoing SMTP connection to send outgoing email over IMAP.

I would like to have a list of IPs (hacker list) that I can do a lookup on so that if anyone tries to authenticate to dovecot they always fail if they are on my list. I have the list - and the list is available as a DNS blacklist. I'd like to have it work with both local IP lists or RBL lookup. The idea is so hackers from known IP addresses never succeed.
