I would think about a diffrent auxprop Backend for example sasldb with only one entry for this User. Use the well hidden feature in your imapd.conf and separate them with: # SASL-COnfig only for pop3 Daemon pop3_sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop pop3_sasl_auxprop_plugin: sasldb pop3_sasl_mech_list: plain login cram-md5 digest-md5 and # SASL-Config for all other Daemons sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd sasl_mech_list: plain login or you can use just: sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop saslauthd sasl_auxprop_plugin: sasldb This would look in both backends. If you don't want to use sasldb and insist in using saslauthd, then something like: pop3_sasl_saslauthd_path: /path/to/second/saslauthd/mux and configure a second independent instance of saslauthd with it's own Configuration for this one User. -- Andreas ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
