Thanks for the info Nick. I had no problems with db3 or SASL, and I
already have a pretty clean sendmail config that will pipe messages
through procmail - which then calls deliver. Makes for a much more
dynamic and flexible mail filtering system.
As for the PAM stuff, I was really planning to use pwcheck in its
usual manner. I have had very good luck with this on 1.6.24 and would
like to change as little as possible going to my new server (I'm
already changing the OS *and* the imapd version!).
Thanks for your response.
