Hi Rajesh, If you are talking about the squirrelmail plugin to change passwords, that would not talk to the IMAP server as far as I recall. It would either use vpopmails command line tools to change the password or else write in the DB directly? In any case, while I am sure you can use an MAP server to check authentication (squirrel and horde can use that for login), I am not aware that IMAP offers a means to SET a password.
