Hi,
I have got dovecot setup as the postfix smtp authentication now YAY -
man its cool!
Just wanted to check if my setup was good practice.
I have it authenticating against a mysql database(MailEnable mysql db)
with passwords stored as plain text.
Is this ok?
the passwd-file is to allow for backward compatibility with single
username and password that some of our clients will still be using.
in my dovecot.conf i have
auth default {
mechanisms = plain login
passdb sql {
args = /etc/dovecot-sql.conf
}
userdb passwd {
}
passdb passwd-file {
args = /etc/passwd.dovecot
}
socket listen {
client {
path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
mode = 0660
user = postfix
group = postfix
}
}
}
cheers
Kate
