Making no assertions\judgements as to the goal or intended path to get there…just helping with the original question… Based on the submission server link below, it appears you will need to use the same auth mechanisms for submission as you do for imap\pop. So essentially, the same type of

Are you sure? I know that postfix can use the same backend database for authentication as dovecot, and dovecot can be the master, but dovecot does NOT listen on port 25 or 587 at all, those are all just used by Postfix. Not true anymore. Dovecot added a submission service in a recent

I am quite curious about the circumstances of this question. I was not aware that Dovecot actually offered mail submission service. If Dovecot does offer such a service, then it will have to relay the submitted mail to the real MTA, which is very likely not Dovecot. At the moment I have Postfix
