I guess that your next question will be: "then how do I do this using UW
imapd's existing facilities?"
What you need to do is specify what "this" means:
. use the same database for passwords for all systems?
. negotiate passwords securely?
. negotiate authentication without letting snoops steal passwords?
. etc.
There is a way to do "this" in UW imapd, but you need to know what "this"
is because doing some "this" prevents you from doing other "this".
It's like "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", where it is revealed
that the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and
everything is 42. The problem is, nobody knew the question...
