Hi ppl,

I have a setup running qmail to deliver mail into the users home
directory, and am using dot-qmail files to dump it in a selection
of different files ($HOME/Mail/inbox-a, $HOM/Mail/inbox-b etc...)

I don't want to start creating multiple users in /etc/passwd in
order to allow multiple pop boxes per user, I'd quite like the
ability to setup usernames and passwords that qpopper would use
in order to access the mail, assuming it can't be validated from
the /etc/passwd file.

I have compiled with:

./configure --with-pam=pop3 --enable-home-dir-mail=Mail/inbox

And am wondering if there is any patch available which uses SQL
or flat files to specify additional username/passwords, which
would be able to access these more specific inboxes in a real
users home directory. I guess what I want is a sort of secondary
authentication system if PAM fails, and in that case, a lookup
to find out in what real user the fake pop users inbox resides,
and then a realtime version of the --enable-home-dir-mail compile
switch above to specify the exact mailbox format filename to use.

Any help very much appreciated...

Thanks,

James.
