Hi Evgeni,

> Is there a posibility to enable smtp authentication through the vmailmgr?

not with the standard setup. The problem is that vmailmgr stores the
user-database in different home-directories, so you must have
root-access to read them.
Martin Gerardi offered the following solution on the vmailmgr list: 
use Eric M. Johnston's smtp-auth patch and set checkvpw suid-root.
I have now idea how secure this is, even Bruce did not make any
promises.
Any comments if this is good or bad are highly appreciated.

bye
