Re: [RCU] Password change with roundcube

2012-10-29 Thread Sébastien BLAISOT
 

Hi, 

For sure it's possible. 

I use a setup with all user
informations (including encrypted passwords) stored in a mysql database
and have postfix (the MTA) as well as dovecot (the IMAP server) checking
the password against that database. 

My roundcube installation uses the
password plugin to change password directly in the mysql database. 

the
trick is to have only one user repository for all your usage whatever
backend is used (flat file, database, ldap or whatever). 

regards,

Hello all!
 
 A question about the password plugin. When I login to my
email-account
 with roundcube, I connect to the service that runs on
port 143 and ask
 there, if I may login, right? dovecot is running on
port 143 and looks
 in his passwordfile and permits the login or does
not, right?
 
 For sending email, sasldb is used on MTA-side to permit
sending or not.
 
 So when I want to use the passwd-plugin with sasl,
it only changes the
 passwd in the sasldb for sending email, the
password in the passwordfile
 of dovecot is not changed and the user
must login with the password once
 specified, right?
 
 Is there a
way, to let the users change their password themselves without

requiering administrative intervention?
 
 Kind regards
 
 Andreas
