Thanks, I was hoping for something less complicated. I found

isn't 'mgrant'. Probably i could make this work if there was no other

password.
I probably should move to virtual users for everyone on my box but
that's not so easy. I was hoping there was some way i could translate
individual users which would make this transition easier.
You could have virtual users with any username (matching the required
format for 'New Outlook') and password in an SQL passdb + userdb, and a
second backend for the system users (PAM probably) as a fallback.
The docs describe this precise scenario at:
