It appears I am not now. with sasl_pwcheck_method set to saslauthd, your authentication will be handled by the saslauthd daemon, and which ever backend it's using. For instance, if your saslauthd is running with '-a pam', then your authentication is handled by a pam configuration named 'imap', or by a catchall pam configuration, in which case 'passwd' might be sufficient for changing your admin passwords. -- Dan White ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/
