I'm trying to configure dovecot to give me a mix of virtual and real
users. It's working fine for my real id.
But it's not working for my antlists virtual id :-(
I know it's the authentication messing up, but I don't know what or how
to fix it - I don't use anything more complicated than /etc/passwd, and
it looks like it's desperate to use pam.auth and getting itself all in a
twist.
If I create the dovecot passwd file with
antlists:{PLAIN}password
thunderbird complains that there's a problem with the server.
But if I use htpasswd to create the entry in the passwd file, it complains
pam_faillock(imap:auth): User unknown
So as a complete guess, I'm thinking maybe htpasswd and dovecot are
using different encryptions? I just don't have a clue how to get them on
the same page ...
Cheers,
Wol
