So this should allow postfix to piggyback on top of whatever dovecot auth
is being used.

can dovecot run as a general sasl service for other apps? such as webdav.
I am using dovecot to provide authentication for postfix
submission. This is the config in postfix:
smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot
# Referring to /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth
In /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf I have this:
unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth {
mode = 0666
user = postfix
group = postfix
}
If the application supports using a socket for sasl, then I
would imagine that Dovecot should work.
Postfix is using the same postfixadmin database for email
addresses that Dovecot is, but for authentication, it's all
Dovecot.
I should probably look into Dovecot's submission support so I
don't need to have postfix using that auth socket, just haven't
found the time.
Thanks,
Shawn
