Sendmail, login and passwrd attached to the mailbox... Nb1
Not sure if this helps, but a server I run shares login info between exim and
dovecot in plain text files.
In dovecot these are referenced with:
passdb {
driver = passwd-file
args = scheme=MD5-CRYPT username_format=%n /etc/exim4/domains/%d/passwd
}
userdb {
driver = passwd-file
args = username_format=%n /etc/exim4/domains/%d/passwd
}
In exim the lookup function is a bit more complicated eg.
user =
${extract{2}{:}{${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{/etc/exim4/domains/$domain/passwd}}}}
I imagine sendmail would have a similar sort of co-existence with dovecot.
