[Dovecot] ANY password option

[Master Abi]

Great. I should read the Wiki more often. This is another case of 'same 
difference'.

I had a quick read, but do you know if it is possible to capture the 
password sent from the client. With our current mail server, we are able 
to capture the password when the client logs in, then we script it to 
change the password on the server. No changes on the client side.

Thanks for the link.
