Hello,

I tried to make use of the authlib to create a new version of 
checkpassword for qmail.
The purpose of this is to let all email users send their email through 
our mail server
without having an open relay, without POP-before-SMTP etc. but by 
authenticating
the SMTP. Therefore I am using qmail with the auth patch. Everything 
works fine
so far with unix system accounts but of course not with the virtual 
email users I have
in the userdb. qmail-smtp  makes use of checkpassword and thus I wanted 
to create
a checkpassword which can check both system and userdb accounts. 
Unfortunately
I couldn't yet figure out how to use authlib to authenticate against 
userdb. The docs
seem slightly out of date and RTFS didn't take me very far.

Can anyone tell me the right way to use the authlib API? So far I only 
found some
functions like authmod(), authmodclient() or authmod_login() (which are 
also in the
docs) but couldn't yet figure out how to use them. They seem to depend 
heavily on
a certain configuration of environment variables like AUTHUSER and argv/argc
assigment ..

thanks for your help
-- Oliver
