ottoka opened a new pull request #741:
URL: https://github.com/apache/james-project/pull/741


   Extend the WebAdmin interface with a route to verify a username/password 
combination:
   
   curl -XPOST http://ip:port/users/usernameToBeUsed \
   -d '{"password":"passwordToBeVerified"}' \
   -H "Content-Type: application/json"
   
   The route reports 204 on success and 401 on failure. There is intentionally 
no distinction for non-existing users, to prevent a username oracle attack 
through this route.
   
   Adding such a feature is useful for integrating James with 3rd party 
services, e.g. a web admin GUI.
