Hello,
I've sucessfully set up public key infrastructure and now I want to use
cert based auth for imaps and/or pop3s services instead of
username/password authentication.

So if the cliend provides a valied cert, signed by my ca - the
uersername should be read from the cert and all other information about
the user should be read from a LDAP directory. (The username and
password should be ignored in that way)

If the cliend does not provide a valid cert, I would like auth users
according to username and password.

Can you give me any hints, if this is possible to realize with courier.

Courier cannot do that right now. But the code to do that shouldn't be too difficult to write, and you've just volunteered for the job :-)
