How does one use a Dovecot passwd file in place of /etc/passwd to validate
local recipients? I'm not looking for authentication, just validation.
Any known table lookup type can be used in local_recipient_maps.
For a list of known table types on your system, use 'postconf -m'.
You can't use the passwd-like file directly from postfix.
Use a script to grab the usernames from your dovecot.passwd
file, and then create a hash: file from those names. Tell
postfix to use that hash: file for local_recipient_maps.
Wrap this up in a Makefile to make running it convenient.
