I've got a solution :
replace the @ by a % on the clients (all -stupid- clients accept the %) and add
this to checkpassword.c in the make_filter function :
int i;
for(i=0; i < tmp.len; i++) {
if(tmp.s[i] == '%') tmp.s[i] = '@';
}
[I don't know if this code is the best way to do this... I'm not a god of C :) ]
then, make auth_pop (and/or auth_imap) and install it.
