I basically have a working LDAP directory to authenticate with

What is the way to go from here to get opensmtpd to accept my
credentials?


Can OpenSMTPd hand this duty off to Dovecot?


I managed to get OpenSMTPD lookup mit LDAP dir with a encrypted password string and it also worked for dovecot after I put the {CRYPT} prefix on my userPassword in LDAP.

so I have basically two conf files for ldap now ...

first for dovecot
second for openSMTP

because the syntax of the config files is different

Both Exim and Postfix have Dovecot do SMTP auth of users via either
chrooted file system sockets, or TCP sockets:

https://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/EximAndDovecotSASL
https://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP/AuthBinds
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/


Thunderbird (& others) can use MD5 passwords with Dovecot too:
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/CRAM-MD5

I dont know if I go this way since as far as I understand this it means I would need a blowfish password and an md5 to check against


Cheers,


regards
