 Are they for different domains? If so, you could use different password
 files for each domain. (This is what I do.) And you can also use databases
 (instead of flat-text) for the authentication.

What databases? What is the name of debian package?


 You'd also need to have your IMAP server be able to use these
 authentication databases (or password files). (I don't use IMAP though --
 I use POP3.)

authentication is ok with pam_mysql. The problem is that IMAP server need
the home dir location.

 Hi there!
 
 I got an interesting error, while configuring named. There is a domain,
 like xy.com, and i tried to create dardai.xy.com
 I restarted named (and increased the serial number of course), but after
 the restart the new subdomain did not work. nslookup dardai.xy.com gave an
 error (not found)
 I tried darday.xy.com, and it worked excellent. dardai did not.
 There were an other subdomain, that gave the same error: theunion.xy.com 
 the-union.xy.com were correct.
 Have you ever faced this problem?
 

this maybe a stupid solution, but it may cause the problem...
didn`t you just forget to put a dot at the end of the domainnames?

 Just add a wrapper before procesing any incoming mail which auth on mysql.
 ---
 Antes de pasar el mail al delivery añade un nivel de chequeo via wrapper
 (ahora que lo pienso puedes hacerlo tb añadiendolo como status de retorno
 de una regla que definas) y que sea quien autentifique en el mysql.

 The file /etc/passwd es very, very long... but es necessary for IMAP server
 to check the home directory for every user.
 

Buenas... gracias por la respuesta, aunque no la pillo muy bien... :)

El problema no es la autentificación (podría quitar el flag w del procmail
(que lo tengo puesto como local mailer del sendmail) (Thanks, brian moore!).

Como dije antes, puedo colocar los buzones, cada uno en su cuenta virtual,
con la ayuda del procmail (o dejo al sendmail que lo deje en /var/spool/mail).

El problema es cuando IMAP va a ver, por una parte el buzón principal en
/var/spool/mail y por otra parte los buzones privados de esa persona, en su
cuenta. Y para saber donde está la cuenta, necesita saber eso: el home dir.
Asi que consulta el passwd.

Ahora estoy en conversaciones con el programador del nss_mysql que dice que
es justo lo que necesitamos.

thats what you need nss for. it can authenticate not only passwords
against varoius services
