Do you really have different users in shadow and in pam? > userdb: > driver: passwd > userdb: > driver: passwd There's no need to have this twice. > > Dovecot supports aliases if you make the > > passdb return "user=the-real-user" field. > > http://wiki.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields > > Hmm, does this mean I add another dummy database containing: > > ralf.hildebrandt:user=rhilde > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:user=rhilde Well, shadow and pam don't support extra fields, so I don't think you can do anything about these unless you switch to another passdb. Currently Dovecot doesn't support these kind of "pass through passdbs". PAM however does support internally changing the username, so it would be possible for you to create such a PAM module. But I can't help with that.
