Had an issue similar to this sometime back, and here is the breakdown: That plugin connects directly to mysql, so your accounts have to be stored in a MySQL table. Then it uses a hashing function (MySQL's by default, ie. PASSWORD()), so you need to know how POSTFIX + DOVECOT connect to your database, EXIM + COURIER were using authlib, so it was possible to customize the hashing function. You need to configure the plugin with your MySQL info, and if the rest are defaults you should have it running automatically.
