Hello, I'm new to this list so I apologize in advance for asking what will likely be a common question.
I manage a new virtual web site and email service for our church, and our web hosting company uses qmail and vpopmail for virtual mail administration. I'm looking for a way to allow the people I have created mailboxes for to change their own passwords, set up forwarding and vacation messages without asking me to do it for them. I would like to do this with a browser interface, and I expect to write one myself. I have figured out how to manipulate the correct ../auth files with a new MD5 password, but I can't sort out how to authenticate the user against that MD5 file in the first place before we change it. If anyone has either an idea on how I can do my own authentication, or if there is a package I can install to simplify my life for ens user password maintenance, I'm all ears. Thanks in advance... Jim
