I wonder that too. Let's fork this thread since it no longer relates to the subject.
To restate the problem for those that have not been following the thread: I wish to have a mailing system where all users have pop access, but certain favored users have IMAP as well. I am using courier-imap/postfix/mysql for this system, and most if not all will be virtual mail accounts. I have the system running fine now, but all users have IMAP (although they don't know it yet). Andy pointed out that the userdb system can have separate passwords for pop and IMAP; therefore the solution would be to only grant IMAP passwords to the favored users. But I am using MySQL for authentication, and I have seen no mention of separate pop/IMAP passwords using authmysql. Andy's question was: >I wonder if there is something you can do to authmysql to store separate >pop/imap/smtp passwords like userdb or if you can just add a flag field >specifying that imap is disallowed. Does anyone know the answer?
