Thanks for the reply.
So just to clarify my thinking....
I would use the ptloader configuration to create a process for
authentication, then use sasl or whatever for authorization.
Other way around. ptloader is an authorization mechanism.
I guess I'm not real clear on the steps that are taken and under what
circumstances those steps are taken.
I think it goes:
Authentication
Authorization
access granted (given the two above passed muster)
I also currently believe that I can control how I authenticate as well as
authorize and these two mechanisms can be different.
All of this is completely seperate from how things are stored and managed
with regard to mailboxes_db and friends. (Looks like skiplist is the best
until I get around to writing an LDAP connector).
