Package: exim4
Version: 4.94.2-7
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
The current preferred mechanism in the Exim configuration for authenticating
users against system passwords is saslauthd, which requires installing
additional software. Dovecot is commonly installed alongside Exim and contains
a SASL mechanism for Exim to authenticate against:
https://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-the_dovecot_authenticator.html
https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/howto/exim_and_dovecot_sasl/
Therefore I think it would be useful for the default Exim configuration file to
contain commented lines for using the Dovecot authenticator out of the box.
