So write a module for libnss.  All the docs are there.  Authcustom is a
skeleton example of how an authentication module should work.  Authpipe
can use other programs to get the data.  It shouldn't be hard.  But if you
really have 86 mail servers (why do you have 86 mail servers?), you should
be using something like LDAP or SQL for your user's backend.
